14. I think you also have some folks who are pro-Obama and anti-Clinton.

I don't know how many, but they do apparently exist. Given how similar they are in terms of policy positions, and given the likelihood that a Clinton Admin would operate in the same fashion as the Obama Admin has, all I can figure is those folks care more about style/personality than substance. Or they simply don't get how similar they are policy-wise.

How many of those folks exist (and how many of them choose not to vote for Clinton in November) will impact how easily Clinton wins. Clinton *should* win in an electoral college landslide, but time will tell if she does.
