On the other hand, is it a 2008 repeat? An "outsider" candidate comes in to challenge the party standard bearers. He arouses great enthusiasm among people who have not voted that much in elections and brings in more voters to the party.

Yes, a repeat of having another nominee destined to lose in the general election.

"Trump Will Lose in November"


OP, if this your own prediction, how certain are you out this predicton?

10%, 50%, 100% ? etc.
 
When I see a poll that polls Bernie supporters for second choice between Trump and Hillary and Trump wins it, then I'll believe it.
 
I don't have a dog in this race, but the polling data cited above is probably not reliable because it is measuring "likely voters", something that goes out the window if there is a larger turnout combined with poor turnout for Clinton, which seems more and more likely. People vote with their emotions, tempers are flaring, and Trump seems to have mastered the art of manipulating them.
 
Iraq war is old news. Today it is M&Ms- Mexicans and Muslims. Coming to take your jobs and kids.
