<<<Right or wrong, a significant segment of the dem party already doesn't like her or trust her. If she gets the nomination, large numbers of Obama supporters won't cross over, I think.>>>

There are basically two visions for America to choose from. Neither side will cross over.

The other side know exactly where Hillary stands. They hate her and I mean "hate".

On the other hand the people that love Hillary are basically "invisible". That is something that Ed does not understand.

The segment of the voting block that support Hillary make up more than 50% of the electorate. In a traditional contest against republicans she will win the majority of votes from woman and Hispanic males (if Hispanic females are already included in the female block). Some black males may sit this one out, but I doubt the ones that show up will cross over. That leaves a block of about 30% of white males that are up for grabs. I am hopeful that there will be sufficient numbers that will vote using their brain rather than with their glands.

Are there democrats that don't like Hillary. Of course. But do they have any good reasons not to like her? Hell no.
