http://fivethirtyeight.com/features/the-hillary-clinton-steamroller-rumbles-to-life/

The gist of the article is a) that she's gotten far more endorsements than most eventual nominees even before declaring she's running, b) her polling are numbers are extremely strong, even outpacing Gore and Dubya's numbers from 2000, c) due to Warren's decision not to run, she will face no serious competition.

Chafee is a Northeastern WASP elitist yet somehow manages to seem more sincere and genuine than Hillary.

How is this relevant to the article? Huh

I can understand why none of you are reading it though. Facts are inconvenient and the truth hurts.

lol, you could post this image for any election where the result isn't in doubt.

But please explain in detail how Dewey's 5 point lead is equivalent to Hillary's massive and unprecedented endorsement advantage, her massive and unprecedented (soon to be) fundraising advantage, her massive and unprecedented 40-50 point polling leads, and her unprecedented extremely weak competition.

Is it really fun for you to talk about Hillary's inevitability 24/7?

Well, there'd be no need to talk about it if people would stop living in denial. I didn't have to constantly talk about Jim Inhofe's inevitability because there wasn't a large group of people living in their own echo chamber and insisting he was vulnerable.

Anyway, you guys need me around. If it wasn't for me giving you guys constant reality checks, I bet the majority of this forum would unironically think Hillary was headed to defeat. I'm saving you guys a lot of potential grief. Wink

2nd and 3rd place are John McCain and Bob Dole. They must have won the general election in a landslide with that support.

With Warren out of the picture, these guys aren't a threat to Hillary. Unless she shoots herself in the foot.
