Plus Registered Democrats are not necessarily Clinton voters. Ever hear of Reagan Democrats? They’re back!
Reince said on stephy’s show this morning that Mitt was -450k in NC going into election day... and he still beat Obama.
Indeed, and “Bernie Democrats” too. I don’t think there has ever been an election where the primary’s “loser” has been treated so badly, and whose supporters are so enraged at the “winner”.
Unfortunately, the reverse is also true. Not all registered Republicans will vote for Trump. :(

I am cautiously optimistic right now. We know there will be a few points lost for her with Bernie supporters. We know there will be a few points lost with rank and file Union types (blue collar Democrats or Reagan democrats as you call them). We know there will be a few points lost by democrats who don’t like her or are concerned with corruption and chaos. We know that Trump is doing far better with African-Americans than past candidates. We know there is little enthusiasm for Clinton among many.
I believe the nevertrump crowd is real in the GOP, but they are likely to be offset by the above and more rats will vote for Johnson or Stein than republicrats.
All of this bodes well for us right now despite what we are hearing in the media. On top of that, in typical fashion the MSM polls are tightening (same game every election).
With all that said, I am still very nervous! Some here call me or people who are nervous about this “concern trolls”, that is BS. Step away from FR for a little bit and the race suddenly looks far different. Both of those viewpoints cannot be right. We will find out soon enough.
