3. Wrong. Hillary is very popular among Democrats
That does not make her popular in the liberal blogsphere, however or at DU.

I know plenty of regular, party line Democrats, mostly family members, and nearly all of them, most more liberal than myself, have Hillary as their first choice and have liked her for years. Further, she is well liked among the longtime activists in the party which contain more women than men.

There you have it. Hillary is well liked among Democrats, especially among women and especially among black voters. That is the key to a big win in the primaries and Hillary has it right now and is unlikely to lose it. Her support is not fickle and certainly less likely to shift than both Edwards and Obama's whose supporters could be comfortable with either one. About the only candidate that could give Hillary voters pause is Al Gore, whom despite all the trash talking towards him, was very popular among Democrats and primary voters also.
