All the usual stipulations apply; it’s a year before the election, and the polling so far pits one candidate with with near-universal name recognition against a bunch of unknowns who just represent ideals (and one celebrity). The unknowns have no negatives; most voters barely know their names.
With all the caveats out-of-the-way? The latest KSTP poll – which has tended in recent cycles to be the better poll of Minnesota’s preferences – shows Hillary losing to pretty much any GOP nominee
In Minnesota.
Which has to be a smack upside the head for an “inevitable” candidate.
The GOP candidates will get negavies – especially once the Democrat noise machine starts sounding off.
Still – not what I expected at this stage of the election.
Clouds on the horizon…could be the shit rain:
FBI steps up interviews in Clinton email probe

The second investigation is the criminal one, to determine who put the classified data on the insecure system. That one is coming.
