40-46% is the minimal any Democrat will get. If that's the best she can do, she's worthless as a candidate. You're supposed to find a candidate that can get you the remainder that = victory. She can't do that unless we help her by choosing someone worthless.
Remember that it is still early in game. Your right that she needs 51% in order to be strong BUT she needs that going into the primary not now. A short campaign with 90% of the mainstream media behind her can easily get her 10 points. Then we are off to the races.
