Yah I guess I was mistaking the opinions I see online for the general view people have of her.Hillary still has solid support from whites. Daily Beast ran an article about it http://www.thedailybeast.com/articl...lem-clinton-s-numbers-among-white-voters.html. She carries the working class vote which is going to be key because the Republicans have been chipping away at the working class white Democrat vote for years. Hillary's biggest issue is the ultra liberal Elizabeth Warren supporters, but there aren't enough of them to make a difference.
The bigger question is going to be what is the GOP going to do? Are they going to continue to cater to these people like the old lady and her crazy stories or will they try to finally branch out? One issue with branching out is that catering to their current audience is working so well. Yes they don't have the President position, but locally all across the nation they have taken over the state legislatures and now Congress. I believe they currently hold the majority of the Governor positions as well. As someone mentioned, their base actually comes out to vote and it makes a huge difference.
Jeb Bush is the only Presidential candidate on the Republican side willing to risk losing the base to have a real shot at competing in the General Election. So far he seems to be winning that battle as his numbers nationally are ahead of Scott Walker. There is no way to prove this, but I believe even those extreme right wing Republicans know deep if they're going to have any shot at all for the White House Scott Walker, Cruz, etc aren't going to cut it. The establishment knows if their get their man into the general election, the base will eventually fall in line. You can say the Democrats know how minorities will turn out, but the right wing is just as predictable even if they put up more of a "fuss" on paper. Their last two candidates just didn't connect with anyone and Obama was a great candidate for the Democrats.
Hillary doesn't have the cool calm wit that Obama has and she isn't as charismatic as her husband. However, She will have strong support from being married and Bill and coming after Obama. If the Republicans don't have a different plan than the past two cycles, she will easily be ushered in.
And I don't think Elizabeth Warren is running so she'll most definitely make it in.
