This is meaningless rhetoric unless he can actually break away from the establishment in various ways to appeal to more than Republican primary voters.
Barely, and not by a margin that suggests he's invulnerable. His remark about Americans needing to "work more hours" was poorly worded, and if he makes similar comments in the future, his small lead could easily disappear.
Yes, but this fact alone won't help him win the general election. It'll simply allow him to make the argument that he's more electable than they are, which in itself isn't saying much.
No, she isn't. With the exception of foreign policy, Clinton has always been fairly liberal. She's no leftwing extremist, however, and I doubt that Bush is closer to being moderate than she is. He's still quite conservative, he's just not as conservative as the likes of Cruz, Rubio, Walker, etc.
Maybe not, but by the same logic, Hillary Clinton doesn't have a "Bill" problem, at least not this time. Even if people can recognize that he isn't his dumber brother, that doesn't mean that he's well-positioned to be the next president.
