Believed that the center is now wide open for her to win a substantial victory, a big victory in the fall because trump is not really doing that well even as of last night at midnight, really hasnt gone into the center politically. She can grab it back from him. She can win big. She can maybe win 55 or more in the popular vote. And this guy is going to help her do it. She knows she doesnt need to go to the hard left.
