Wish to lend my appreciation for letting everyone know it's HRC room as well
Though, I try and shy away from getting into what I perceive as needless arguments with fellow DUers who are supporting other candidates

I posted in the HRC room about a month ago and would like to add to yours, she has one other thing working in her favor
She is known to almost everyone.
Her 20+ years in the public spotlight means almost everyone has an opinion on her
I believe (though cannot prove with polling numbers) that about 75-77% of people have made up their mind about her.
I think 40% will vote for her unless it's discovered she's a freeway sniper or something akin and about 33% will never vote for her no matter what
It's the 27% that are undecided that work in her favor
They will spend more time looking at the Republicans to try and learn more about them
That's not a pretty picture and I think about 3/5 will break her ways, 30% break against and 10% go looking elsewhere
Barring something unexpected, I don't see how it breaks in favor of the Republicans under any plausible scenario
