Clinton v. Trump

Now that we have a race that will pit Hillary Clinton against Donald Trump, it is interesting to hear from the pundits that it will be a slam-dunk for Clinton in defeating him.

Not so fast. Not only will some of the Bernie Sanders voters possibly vote for Trump, but there are women who do not like her. Add to this independents who have voted for Trump in the primaries and consider that although Clinton will still get a high percentage of the black vote, the number voting may be smaller. Definitely not a slam-dunk!
