Why worry about who "will win" now, when we simply DON'T KNOW!
Now should be the time that we hear from the various candidates that could run what the ISSUES are facing Americans, HOW they stand on them, and WHAT THEY'VE DONE in their history that make them a good solution for them!
Demand the corporate media that WANTS a horse race because they DON'T WANT candidates running on issues to serve their agenda rather than the people's agenda to measure these issues instead.
If Hillary is truly good on these issues, she'll strengthen her lead that much more. if not, then we should question if she's the right choice or not. Those that are depicted as "anti-Hillary" aren't "anti-Hillary", but are against the corporatist dogma that has dominated our country for so long. There's room for anyone regardless of their race, gender, etc. to be one we'd like to represent us. All they have to do is starting talking on the ISSUES that we are worried about that we've been screwed with for so long, and how they will fix America in these areas.
Focusing just on who will win is only a meaningless distraction by design promoted by the corporate media and corporate interests, and doesn't serve us the people in fixing the many problems in front of us so that we are being served, not just the wealthy elites.
