Hillary Clinton is going to lose: She doesnt even see the frustrated progressive wave that will nominate Bernie Sanders............
She rates 51% unfavorable nationally as of February 7, 2016, worse than the 32% negative opinion registered in September 2011 and the 45% registered a year ago.
CBS News found last October that 14% of Democratic voters declared they wouldnt vote for her, with another 27% expressing strong reservations about her....

(5,400 posts)The three governmental investigations will be a factor in keeping the negative numbers high. There is no upside to those investigations, and the hard questions, and brutal ads, are waiting in the wings.
"Release the transcripts" won't be getting dispelled. It's already an easy google search, and as it becomes apparent Secretary Clinton is stonewalling the issue, she'll see it getting thrown in her face.
In 2007/2008 people were willing to put the past in the past. But unforced errors like the huge speaking fees have put everything back on the table.

No. This is directly tearing down a Democratic candidate for President and works toward not voting if that candidate is the nominee. As such it is a serious DU TOS violation and should be hidden.
You served on a randomly-selected Jury of DU members which reviewed this post. The review was completed at Tue Feb 16, 2016, 12:14 PM, and the Jury voted 2-5 to LEAVE IT.
Juror #1 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: This is not a hurtful post. The post has educational information for voters to take into consideration. To hide it is absurd. At the moment she is running against another Democratic hopeful. I see nothing wrong here.
Juror #2 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: No explanation given
Juror #3 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: No explanation given
Juror #4 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: I suggest that the alerter trash the GD-P forum.
I also suggest that (s)he stop making up lies to get threads hidden. The post in no way suggests that DUers not vote for the eventual nominee.
Juror #5 voted to HIDE IT
Explanation: Although these statements are often seen on this board in various forms, the complaint is valid. I'd like to hide based on the very offensive title alone, but I vote to hide for the following, completely over-the-line slur on the candidate, party, and process: "...through the stealing of the nomination by loyalist super-delegates or by other means,..."
Juror #6 voted to HIDE IT
Explanation: No explanation given
Juror #7 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: Everything in that post is a statement of fact. Hiding it would be a very non democratic (small d) thing to do. This alerter should be ashamed of himself.
Thank you very much for participating in our Jury system, and we hope you will be able to participate again in the future.
