Webb would be losing because the base would loathe him.

Chafee would have had to run the best campaign in history to win, so he'd be leading. I think O'Malley would be ahead, but by less than Clinton.

Sanders would be ahead by 5-8 points.

Where do you think the base will go? Stein? Trump? Ha.
Johnson, maybe some to Stein. Some won't vote, especially younger, more apathetic types.

Any Democrat with a pulse and without a corruption or sex scandal in their past would be ahead of Trump.  The fact that the race is even borderline competitive says a lot about Hillary Clinton.

Bottom line: Hillary, while highly experienced and competent, is a very flawed and distrusted candidate. Almost any other non-Trump GOP candidate (except Cruz, Carson, Bush or Gilmore) would be ahead of her right now.
I think you underestimate how polarized American politics are.
