ANYONE facing Trump is not only electable but elected. I've not seen a single poll - for months - where ANY Democrat (or Socialist) doesn't trump Trump. But yes, there are those who believe these two - both with big negatives - opens the door to an independent (a Ross Parot type), but this late, such would have to be self-funded (meaning a billionaire) and even then, with no groundwork, such would have a tough time. But.... yeah.... in this WEIRD year, it's a possibility.
As a conservative Republican, it would be my prayer that she does trump him.... But again, I've not seen a single poll that shows Trump even close to Clinton: she'll win in what will likely be the biggest landslide in decades. And yes, Trump may well take down the Republicans in both houses and several governorships as well. In fact, only Kasich beats Clinton in the polls - but there is ZERO chance he'll get the nomination.

Howdy,
My guess is that you do not keep track of many polls because the latest ones show Clinton & Trump only 3 points apart now. And, if you're not real familiar with how the political game works, the polls usually tighten considerably as the election draws near because that is when people begin paying more attention to the individual races. The polls, until then, are essentially meaningless. By the time the election draws really close, Trump will be ahead of Hillary in the polls -- assuming that Hillary is still in the race. She very well might be facing criminal prosecution for her crimes by then.
In such a case, the Dems would probably send Sanders or Biden, or Warren, to replace her on the ballot.
I would also have to question your true conservatism if I understood you correctly to want Hillary to become president over Trump. Did I read that correctly??? Nobody who truly cares about America would want a hardline communist type like Hillary as POTUS, especially with most of the Supreme Court probably hanging in the balance.
And, as I told YOU in the last post, the Democrats have lost OVER ONE THOUSAND SEATS across the nation over the past six years. This trend continues today and it is not very likely that the Repubs, on a national level, would lose control of the House or the Senate. They will NOT lose the House, although the Senate might be somewhat of a close call if the Repubs have more seats up for grabs in this particular election.
And keep in mind that Trump basically has re-activated the Reagan Democrats, who are switching to the Republican party by the THOUSANDS. Also factor in the fact that about 20% of Democrats say they will vote for TRUMP instead of Hillary. In this light, it truly becomes laughable to fear that Hillary would beat Trump. In reality, he would destroy her across the states if she is able to remain on the ballot.
I would highly recommend that you begin watching the Fox News Channel, NewsMax TV and/or listening to Rush Limbaugh and Sean Hannity, Mark Levin, etc. They will give you the HONEST polling data and other statistics so that your opinions may not be quite as skewed.
Take care,
Chuck
