And I agree (none / 0) (#100)

but she can not carry Obama with her.  But I also agree that unless Dems unite behind Clinton and her policies the Party will not win the White House in Nov. she is the more electable when you look at the electoral map.  I also believe the Party itself now has a creditability problem with most voters and legitimacy is a fair question, after Pa. if Clinton has the blow out I believe she will that's will be the time for the Party to right itself if it doesn't no White House and no big gains in Congress recall that the 30 percent of Clinton voters likely to swing are actual Dems and conservative Independents so you would need to consider a loss in any competitive district or State open seat down stream as well.

Clinton leads by a twenty-seven point advantage among White Women and 9 percent among party Democrats ......and guess what 41 percent of the electorate are white women...so call it opinion not sure I care, I call it math.

And Ky which is May 20th she is 58 to 28 in the polls, Senator Clinton is the voters choice when their votes count.
