Yes. Clinton is only the right answer because Trump is the wrong one. And no I'm not a Clinton defender.

Mike - You and more than a bunch of my friends feel that there is little difference between Clinton and Trump. But as I said, a lot of leading right leading media members and politicians - people who would have to be drastically pushed to vote Democrat are being pushed that way.

You may think that there's no difference, but you are in a small minority. So either a lot of us are very wrong, or you and many like you are way off base.

For me personally, I think it is highly irrational for any true Republican to think Trump is the answer. Is ever the answer.

Hillary is allergic to the truth. She is possibly the most dishonest presidential candidate in history. I think she'd rather lie, or avoid the truth, when the truth would benefit her. Her careless handling of classified documents should probably disqualify her. But, because Trump is horrible, she's still in it.

Yes. Because Trump is horrible she's in. And it's the right decision.

Mike keep in mind that just about ANYONE could have been nominated for the Republican ticket and most Republicans would vote for them. Not Trump. He's that bad.

Yet he got the Republican nomination and Hillary isn't distancing herself in any noticeable way.

Keep in mind that I said exactly what you're saying all thru the Repub nomination process.

Maybe the Washington Post will do a piece on it.

She's s 2-1 favorite to win and that's probably going to increase in the polls this week. She's farther ahead than Obama was in 08.

Considering how blindly partisan the country is (a point that you make frequently), I'm surprised it's not closer.

That's noticeable distance.

Well I'm just saying there IS a noticeable difference between Clinton and Trump. If there wasn't one we wouldn't be having this conversation.

So you're willing to bet she wins by more than 192 electoral votes?

Point is, I said through the entire process that "America will tire of his nonsense." They apparently haven't.

Why would I be willing to bet that?

Your words? "She's farther ahead than Obama was in 08."

Obama won by 192. Do you think Trump is going to rally? Hillary find a way to dig a hole?

She's further ahead in the polls. That doesn't mean she'll win by 200 electoral votes. It just means that she is distancing herself from Trump.

We've seen the large number of prominent Republicans who have come out in favor of Clinton. If she was just as bad, wouldn't there also be a bunch of prominent Democrats supporting Trump?
