Hillary Clinton is unraveling quickly
The New York Post ^ | May 10th, 2016 | By Michael Goodwin

Posted on 05/10/2016 8:13:07 PM PDT by Mariner

A liberal friend is very concerned about the Republican Party. He tells me that Donald Trump will make it impossible for anybody anywhere running under the “R” column to win election. Even a dogcatcher in Podunk is doomed!

The New York Times shows a similar concern. Surely written with furrowed brow, its front page worries because “Sparring in GOP Rises” and because “Rift Grows Wide as Republicans Abandon Trump.” It joins two other concerned lefties, the Huffington Post and CNBC, in declaring that the GOP is “unraveling.”

All stand ready to help sponsor a dignified funeral, but that won’t be necessary. Their reports of the Republican Party’s death are premature. Very premature.

A new Quinnipiac poll tells the inconvenient truth. Trump and Hillary Clinton are tied in each of the three key swing states of Ohio, Pennsylvania and Florida.

The breakdown in Florida reveals how truly close the race is. As Politico puts it, Clinton has a 13-point advantage among women, 48 percent to 35 percent, while Trump’s lead among men is also 13 points, 49 percent to 36 percent. Each gets 39 percent of independent voters, while Trump wins big among whites, and Clinton wins big among nonwhites. The candidates have identical net negative approvals of minus 20 points, 37 percent to 57 percent.

With the poll showing Bernie Sanders doing better against Trump than Clinton (and Sanders winning the West Virginia primary on Tuesday), I myself am growing concerned about the “unraveling” of the Democratic Party!

Good liberals know that all it takes for a democrat to win the presidency is control of 5 swing states. The inner city vote in these swing states controls the outcome. Ballot box fraud in the cities in these swing states went unchallenged by the GOP in the past two elections, 2008, 2012. Donald Trump will have to take innercity Philedlephia and Cleveland to win and that is just not feasible. This election cycle is not a beauty contest but an expensive exercise in futility to calm the masses and make them think they are not serfs.

in Manhattan, the only Hillary voters I meet are:

1) rich old white women
2) government bureaucrats
3) party hacks

the great mass of people I informally poll are all for Trump. Yesterday, I had a Spanish Soeaking Cabbie tell me:

“Hillary is a robber, why would you vote for someone who you know will rob you ?”

Why else would someone at the FBI leak “Cheryl Mills caught off guard.”? The FBI has been countering Hillary’s excuses to show she and the truth are strangers. Isn’t it a little bit curious that the Romanian hacker Guccifer is being allowed to do public interviews with the press?

Who within the FBI is providing Catherine Herridge with a steady supply of information on the FBI’s investigation?

Why has Obama felt compelled to prop up Clinton? Why did CNN go into full blown damage control mode saying nothing had been found during the interviews?

Hillary is being tried in the court of public opinion to turn her into a pariah with the voters. Whether that’s a factor or not her approval rating is steadily dropping. At some point it’s highly likely the party will wake up and recognizes Hillary is the Humpty Dumpty of modern politics.

She’s damaged beyond repair.

She’ll still get the ‘vote for me I’ll vote for you’ votes. No getting around that as long as the gravy train runs. Need jobs and incentive to work to be force fed these PEOPLE.

First blame Ryan and McConnell, and the sellouts who label themselves "R" for that outcome, which was in the cards long before Trump ever showed up.

Second, not many on our side of the table are shedding tears over the blow-up of the GOP. It just goes to show that the Dims see our "R"s as the reliable sell-outs that we know them to be.

Unraveling? If so, not quickly enough! She’s been on the national stage since 1992, dodging bullet after bullet after bullet. I think only a wooden stake will do at this point.
