Democrats unsure Hillary Clinton can beat Donald Trump in general election

Democratic Party activists are conflicted over whether Hillary Clinton can take on Republican presidential front-runner Donald Trump in the general election, with some fearing she provides too much ammunition for the flamboyant businessman’s style of attack.

While Mr. Trump is leading the national polls and calling the shots in what’s become a circuslike GOP primary season, Mrs. Clinton tops a sedentary Democratic race with two other opponents respectfully nipping at her without doing much damage — and party stalwarts are happy to have it that way.

“I hear a lot of people saying, ‘You know, I’ve watched the Democratic debates and the Republican debates, and they’re so different. I’m sure glad I’m on the Democratic side and they’re talking about the issues. They don’t always agree with one another, but they explain why,’” said David Allen, a Democratic Party leader in Barnstead, New Hampshire. “Democrats have resolved themselves to not go into a circus and tear one another down.”

But Mr. Allen said he does worry about how the eventual Democratic nominee will stand up to the sort of withering barbs Mr. Trump has dished out to his own side.

    Heh!....I think this is the most reality-based primary season I've ever seen, at least as far as Donald Trump is concerned.


    “Democrats have resolved themselves to not go into a circus and tear one another down.”

    They missed the bus on that one, because they're the clown act in it.


    "Mr. Trump already has started taking aim at Mrs. Clinton, just as some activists had feared."

    What did they expect? It's open season, and there's no bag limit. They're just miffed that it's their moose being shot at.

    “I just don’t like to use the same thing twice on one of my enemies, because I consider them enemies,” Mr. Trump said. “We view this as war. Don’t we view this as war? It’s war, it’s war!”

    Truer words were never spoken, because a war is what it is.


    "....support for Mrs. Clinton as the Democrats’ champion in the general election remains lukewarm...."

    Heh!..even the Democrats realize that Donald Trump gives off an aroma like a brand new dish at the diner, where it's been the same old menu for as long as anybody can remember. They won't admit it, and might not even recognize it, but their mouth is watering. :)

    Hillary is toast. She just doesn't know it yet. Oh she will beat Sanders in the primary elections but after that I think her number will fade under a fucilade of questions about her incompetence.
