(13,446 posts)The map is an amalgamation of state predictions by Sabato which closer to state polls than a national one.. Given some recent state polls, Sabato should update his map.

(2,064 posts)and I don't see young progressives getting out in the numbers they did for Obama. I think it's 50/50. Trump will have as much money as he wants, and the corporate money men that have underwritten HRC may just decide that they win regardless of who comes out on top in November. If they close their checkbook, and HRC's minions have turned off the millions of Bernie donors, she could be in real financial peril vs Trump.
Look, I hate Trump, but his peeps are far more enthusiastic than HRC's. Just watch one of her rallies... all the excitement and energy of a root canal. I don't want to see him elected, but I don't want to see HRC dragging the party back towards the DLC centrist nonsense that we've been moving away from for the past 16 years.
