By contrast, polls have Kasich defeating Clinton by 7 points and Rubio defeating Clinton by 4 points. Jeb, Carson and Cruz would be within play.

Polling data will change, of course, as the cycle continues and candidates fade into the background.

Those national polls are useless because we don't have a national election. We, in effect, have 51 different elections as the person who wins the popular vote can easily lose the election. In the fall, if either candidate can win three out of four of the following states- Florida, Pennsylvania, Ohio, and North Carolina, they will almost certainly win the Presidency.

Playing this out state by state, Clinton leads Trump, 240-132, with 166 electoral votes up for grabs. Sanders leads Trump, 256-181 with 101 electoral votes up for grab.

Kasich, Jeb and Rubio each have small, too-close-to-call leads over Clinton in electoral vote projections based on polling.

These numbers are fluid as candidates can win voters in swing states.

I don't disagree at all. I would just toss in a few more states that could go either way, such as Virginia, Wisconsin, Colorado, Nevada.

She said that Libya isn't perfect, but is making progress. She added, "Libya was a different kind of calculation, and we didn't lose a single person."

Hmmmm, . . .
