2. All the Dems are losing in that poll

So its simply the media bashing her by saying "Hillary losing" in the headline. That's prob BC Obama's numbers are middling right now. His approvals will decide this election. Also, she's not losing by much, and that's before the voters are reintroduced to the Bushes. Obama needs to shore his numbers up. As consolation tho, Reagan actually had similar numbers in 1987. Dukakis got rocked in 1988. It's also not exactly a Pew, Gallup, or USA Today poll.

She's also still winning the popular vote (Trump or no Trump) which has a 92% correlation with the winner. W. is likely to be the only president of the lifetimes of anyone who has ever posted here to win* with fewer votes.
