    In Kentucky, Obama won 32% but a Trump-Clinton race is a different animal. Lots of folks here do not take Trump seriously.

    She won't even get 40% of the vote in Texas, no matter who the republican nominee is.

    Texas is a red state, we know that. We know the red states and the blue states. As usual, it all comes down to the swing states--Florida, Ohio, Virginia, North Carolina, Pennsylvania, Wisconsin. If Trump is the nominee I'm going to say Clinton wins Virginia, North Carolina, Pennsylvania, Ohio, and probably Florida, so she wins the election. Obama won these states both times he ran, there's no reason to think Clinton won't carry them as well.

    You're right. They have proved how stupid they are as voters the last 2 elections. I doubt they are any smarter this time around. But there is hope her lies have caught up with her. But you can't fix, nor overcome, stupid.

    She will not win Florida. (Be sure and book mark this in case I turn up wrong later. I would hate that you missed an opportunity to repost this.)

    We cannot assume her support will stay as is after primary. The DNC has been protecting her but that will be more difficult to do later.

    North Carolina went for Romney. Plus the first Republican legislature in 100 years did some redistricting.

    You're right, I'm wrong. Romney won NC in a squeaker. I was looking at 270towin.com and must have read the maps wrong or picked the wrong one.

    Trump v. Clinton. I think that Wisconsin will go for Clinton.

    Probably. I don't foresee Scott Walker campaigning for Trump, that's for sure.

    I think that many thought that Walker was more focused on Presidential possibilities than he was on his present job. He was gone from the state more than he should have been, and the people feel neglected. His reputation certainly took a hit, and I think that it will affect the election next year if he does not repair it.

    My opinion only.

    Too bad, I really liked Scott Walker.
