why is she terrified of an average 10 point lead?

I hope the ones showing 3 point difference are right but they are all over the place.

why would she panic already?

I think even she knows that lead is “fake”

Last week Trump was outperforming his polls by 10 points

Indiana by 7

A 10 point lead will quickly evaporate

Polls pretty well useless at this time.

In 1380 at this point in the race Reagan trailed Carter by huge numbers and we know how how that turned out. Similarly in 1992 Clinton trailed GHWB by 25 points and went on to win.

Ignore polling and look at the crowds instead.

Hillary Clinton is panicking because her game plan - reliance on big ad buys and massive support from the mainstream media - failed for Jeb Bush. To win, she will have to rely on voter fraud on a scale that would make Richard Daley blush. She might win but the election results may further sour the public.

One could say, so what? Throw in a recession, maybe more American humiliation by Russia, China, or Iran, and the collapse of both the RINO and neo-conservative factions, the 2018 election may bring in a Congress with strong paleo-conservative leanings. This could be a longer term threat to the uniparty establishment than even a Trump presidency.

“why would she panic already?”

My guess is that her private polling shows her that the slide has already started. The public polling we see has yet to take this week’s events into consideration. We may not really know the dimensions of her coming loss until after California votes. Plus she can’t physically keep up with Trump. She’s a sick woman in several ways, and the wear and tear has really yet to set in.

Check out the lead she started with over Sanders and it should be pretty obvious. She has never won a competitive election in her life.

Because those polls are:

1) too early to have meaning
2) BS
3) both

I don’t get it either. Prohibitive favorites aren’t usually terrified of the underdog.

Trump definitely has a chance to beat her, but it isn’t going to be a cakewalk by any stretch.
