Insiders: Hillary's speech was a winner

“The narrative of division is bogus. The hecklers were never Democrats to begin with,” said an Iowa Democrat.

PHILADELPHIA — Hillary Clinton’s acceptance speech at the Democratic National Convention helped to ease party insiders’ anxiety after a week in which Donald Trump rode a modest bounce from the GOP convention into a neck-and-neck race with Clinton in the general election.

That’s according to The POLITICO Caucus — a panel of activists, strategists and operatives in 11 key battleground states. Three quarters of Democratic insiders said following Clinton’s speech closing the Democratic convention here Thursday night they are “very confident” about her chances of defeating Trump in November.

Trump “will never again be even in this race,” predicted one Iowa Democrat — who, like all respondents, completed the survey anonymously. Added a Nevada Democrat: “I bet she gets a bump [in the polls].”

“Hillary hit a home run tonight,” added a North Carolina Democrat. “It was refreshing to actually hear a candidate discuss what she will actually do as president. The American people heard her load and clear. They will elect her in November.”

They try hard to feign confidence, despite misgivings deep down in their hearts. I expect to see even more fawning stories from MSM full of adulation.

They believe they had a “DINO” problem. Oh never mind Bernie Sanders and his different idea of the left.

And they heard it clear(ly)?

Oh man. We don’t even need to rail at Hillary, they are so sad. We just need to ask the right questions.

She is a killer sonic weapon military has been after for decades. It will put enemy troops to sleep or make them simply run away from her screeching. Either way, you win.:-)

Lol.....

It can be said that both parties are not fully unified. But the democrats are in worse shape especially after this week when they should be. 4 years ago a 8 years ago, the dems were unified. Not now. The Bernie supporters are mad and will walk away from Hillary and the dems this year.

It had to be sooner or later all the nasty things said in politics actually came true.

There isn’t as much GOP dissent as DEM dissent though, at this point.

I’m not sure how anyone at Politico can take themselves seriously anymore, to say nothing about anyone on the outside taking them seriously. They should put the following disclaimer at the bottom of each article.

“This article may have been reviewed by DNC staffers for accuracy, and to ensure the appropriate level of political slant.”
