Hillary has a nearly 50% NEGATIVE approval rating, meaning almost 50% of the country actively dislikes her, that's a big hole to dig yourself out of, IMHO.

I also like how her people are trying to convince everyone that 25% of the republican women will "Jump Ship" to vote for her in the general election. I fail to sense that will come to be. Most women I know won't vote for her - some becuse she seems so smug and acts as if she is pre-ordained, the others just don't like her and what she stands for (political difference of opinion)...
