Something is terribly amiss within the Hillary Clinton campaign these days.
They know it. Their supporters in the Mainstream Media know it. The DNC knows it.
And so too does Hillary Clinton herself know it.
With the General Election race not yet officially underway, Team Hillary is dealing with an increasingly unpopular candidate with a very weak base of support upon which to build a national campaign and despite hundreds of millions of dollars at the ready to make her more appealing, voters so far appear reluctant to give her much attention and even less respect.
Mrs. Clinton is looking very much like her political establishment counterpart, Jeb Bush.

Yesterday’s West Virginia Democrat primary gave the Clinton Camp even more heartburn-inducing statistics. Perhaps the most telling and daunting of these was the fact a third of Democrats indicated they would vote for Donald Trump over Hillary Clinton in the General Election. (And remember, this is a state Hillary thumped Barack Obama in during the state’s 2008 primary race)
A THIRD.
That is the kind of crossover voter appeal that more than rivals that of Ronald Reagan, whose two General Election victories were of historic landslide proportions unmatched by any other modern era candidate. The polling data also indicates that women are not flocking to Hillary as the Hillary campaign had hoped they would. In fact, despite months of negative media portrayals regarding Trump’s alleged lack of popularity among female voters, actual election results show women voting for Trump at a ratio comparable to other past GOP candidates.
In short, Donald Trump continues to build upon his success in what was a very competitive and volatile GOP primary battle and is poised to potentially crush Hillary Clinton in the General Election.
There are months yet before the November vote of course, and the Clinton Machine, however reduced from the days of its former and formidable glory, remains an entity capable of a comeback.
The Clinton machine has never gotten 50% in any national election. Not for Bill, and not for Hillary Rodham Clinton.

Good!
Trump needs to be very careful.
Nothing gets in the way of Clinton and their desire for $$$ and Power.
This is the only reason I stopped supporting Cruz.
He was careless, sloppy and took advice from the wrong people.
It all went downhill from there.
Hildy and her minions are quaking at the upcoming rampage and trail of destruction that is going to be wrought on them by Trumpzilla!
Bernie's supporters are simply lazy slackers who want to government to pay for everything.
I prefer Bernie's supporters, because they simply want to lay around and get high.
Hillary's supporters want to kill you and take your money.
Good point.
While the MSM hypes the Clintons, their reality is pretty weak.
They’ve had “toxic coattails” too.
The election record of candidates they have campaigned for/with is lousy.
She is low energy, just like Jeb
Ross Perot has a lot to answer for.He’s the direct reason we’re in the mess we’re in.
It seems like every week Hillary is hiring some new PR guru to help her with her image. You can’t fix evil.
The dye is cast! I love it!!
Trump needs to take it easy at first. The Witch is an easy target but if he overdoes it she may get some sympathy support and he could peak to early. Now if she get nasty first then he needs to return fire with everything he’s got.
Rather than Jeb, Hillary is their Mitt Romney. It’s her turn, but nobody really likes her, she is seen (correctly) as a corrupt insider, and she possesses none of the core principles that rally the base.
Beat her like a drum Trump!
Ross Perot?
What are you talking about?
I feel like Jeb is lazy but Hillary is impaired.
I know in her WH years she wasn’t low energy.
Also if she’s worn out now from dealing with Bernie, just wait until Trump REALLY starts in on her!
Can you say Bob Dole energy beam?
I think there were surveys out, early in the run-up to the primaries, that the nation really did not want to see a Clinton vs. Bush match-up, did not want to see another Clinton or Bush in the White Crib. The people spoke on the R side, and maybe are speaking on the D side.
>>Mrs. Clinton is looking very much like her political establishment counterpart, Jeb Bush.<<
Why not, the Bush family are voting for her. Birds of a feather
