They've tried to hit him on several things and none of it seems to be sticking. He's galvanized the Republican party, they are breaking records like Dems did in '08. If Hillary is the nominee, I expect GOP to turn out in record numbers to make sure she doesn't win by any means necessary...they hate her that bad. I don't think Bernie can beat him either.

Bernie is honestly the best chance for the Democrats to win. I think Hillary would lose by a landslide because of this. Bernie has a chance because he's getting young voters excited. I've heard that the turnout for the Democrats is currently on track to be the second highest- only behind 2008. If most Bernie and Hillary supporters stick with the nominee, then the Democrat nominee should win. A lot of people from each side are saying they won't vote for the other, and this should stop unless we really want Trump in the White House.
Bloomberg will screw things up further if he runs. In the current political climate we aren't having an independent president. Hillary could be running as an independent and she wouldn't have enough support to win. She'd come the closest though.
