Hillary Clinton "Sinking Like A Rock"

by JASmius



John Zogby is the latest person to awaken to what I've been pointing out for two and a half years:

One expert believes Hillary Clinton's presidential campaign is "sinking like a rock."

During an appearance on Newsmax TV's Newsmax Prime, John Zogby of Zogby Analytics tells host J.D. Hayworth [Mrs.] Clinton's stock is plummeting.

"Both her and her campaign are in trouble," Zogby says. "The very fact that there was a modest sort of acknowledgement of that really should reflect the fact that it's a much bigger problem. Not only for her, but for the party at this point and time. She is frankly sinking like a rock."

Or, to be more accurate, she was never all that high in the first place, which her initial (and assumptive) absence of opposition concealed.  Now that there's a warm body in the race who has more leftwingnut authenticity, that's all that was necessary to burst the illusion of Hillary's "inevitability" - the same bubble that got popped by Barack Obama in 2008.

Can Bernie Sanders overtake the Empress?  Mayhap he can, mayhap he can't.  Mr. Zogby is in the latter camp, but with an interesting twist:

Zogby doesn't think Sanders will be the Democrat nominee for president, however.

"Bernie Sanders is playing the would-be Elizabeth Warren role. He is the [communist] with flesh and bones," Zogby says. "Essentially, he's not a very appealing persona.

"It is the [communist] wing of the Democrat Party and right now they see an alternative to Hillary and that's what he is. An alternative to Hillary and already he's increasing his support. Will he be the nominee? Oh, probably not. Will he go to the end? Probably not. What you'll see sooner rather than later is somebody jumping into the race that can really not only electrify that base of the party, but give Hillary the real run and she should be worried." [emphases added]

That could still be Fauxcahontas if she would jump in.  If not, there may be room for more than one prophet on this blog.
