Clinton leads (Vanity)
realclearpolitics.com ^

Posted on 06/21/2015 10:38:28 AM PDT by inchworm

Clinton beats just about all GOP contenders in almost every poll. And even sadder is the fact the polls suggest Bush will get the GOP nomination. See realclearpolitics.com. What this tells me is more than half of Americans don't realize or care Hillary is a flake and has never been held accountable for her massive mistakes. Furthermore it tells me the conservative nomination is going to be split and splintered in too many directions to make a difference. How is it that Conservatives and Republicans are so disgusted with the GOP leadership that they will end up putting forth another "go along get along", "sell out", fraudulent conservative, fraudulent Republican for the GOP nomination? RINO is no longer a valid analysis of today's GOP as it I exactly what the party is and been over a considerable measure of time.

The people who are saying that Hillary is leading all of the presidential polls are the same ones who are telling us that our unemployment rate is below six percent. Food for thought.

Actually stepping up and FIGHTING can change circumstances. Or, the candidate can just campaign like it is 1955.

$6,000,000,000 is “lost” in the State Department while she is the Secretary of State?

No investigation? No punishment?

Let a Soldier lose a government blanket and watch what happens.

She “loses” $6,000,000,000 of American taxpayer money and then runs for President?

She should be in prison or selling slurpees to pay off her debt.

No, she should be in prison for setting up a private email account and deliberately violating the FOIA.

It’s June, of the year BEFORE the election, it’s 6 months plus till the damn Iowa caucus. Chill out.

Slight to moderate leads for she of the 100% name recognition Hillary today are meaningless. Slight leads for Jeb in NATIONAL primary polls 6 months before Iowa where no one thinks he’ll win are meaningless.

I think Walker will be the nominee and the President.

Every election season people here brush off the polls as BS. And then when the polls turn out to be more or less correct, they scream "voter fraud!"

The sad truth is that no matter who we run, Hillary wakes up on the morning of election day with 240 electoral votes already in her pocket.

2016 will be a closely contested race in just a handful of states. Anybody who thinks that any one of our candidates will defeat Hillary in a landslide is delusional. It's going to come down to the wire.

If hillary is leading, it's because a lot of US citizens have given up on the Republican Party. Republicans were elected to stop Obama's agenda; instead, with majorities, they're now totally ignoring their constituents and fast tracking it.

People aren't going to switch sides if the "other side" can't be trusted to make things better.

Polls this far in advance of the election mean nothing.

But EVERY national politician hires polling firms and in 2012 there were about twenty national polls that got the final outcome within plus or mnus three points of the actual result.

National polls need to weighted to reflect Electoral College votes and most if
not all aren’t. Thus the results reflect only a random sample of the general public.

Clinton is so far ahead of her opponents that she’ll coast into the democratnomination
without any real competition. The GOP will be much closer until at least the Mar. 1,
round of primaries. Then the GOP field will begin to narrow rapidly,

JMO.

Eight years ago Mike Huckabee was ahead in the polls.

Keep reading up on those polls. Meanwhile I’ll continue to monitor the grassroots intensity which is now over the top for Ted Cruz.

I could see a solid workman-like populist GOP campaign being able to take advantage of a flaky Hillary campaign. She’s a globalist, an America-centric Republican could beat her.

She should be in prison for lying about the cause of the Benghazi attack. She should be in prison for failing to respond to requests for help (more security) before the attack.

Exactly so. With rare exceptions, polls taken close to election time usually give a good indication of how an election will turn out.

Any article written now predicting winners is nuts. From now till November 2016 is several political lifetimes.

Care to look up how many polls Carter led Reagan in back in 1980?
