It seems likely that she will lose to Trump - there is just too much material for him to make ads over, plus this is an anti-establishment election and Hillary is as status quo as one can possibly get.

What I was pointing out in my previous reply is that Hillary supporters keep describing Hillary in all sorts of ways, but there's not a lot of evidence for it. Strong? In what way? What did she accomplish in the senate? Sibel Edmonds had a piece about that last week. Short answer, she sponsored a bill to name a park after some guy. She didn't take any controversial positions. She took no risks. Smart? She's smart to avoid any more controversy than she's already got. So basically, she and her supporters have spent a lot of effort creating an illusion (delusion) of who she is.
