17. You missed the point
MASSIVE Donor lists
Connections
Media attention

Hubby's coattails

The fact that those coattails exist is undeniable.
That she is riding them shows that she is an astute politician.
My personal preference would be to have a woman candidate who got there with donor lists built over a political career where she made her own connections and developed her own loyal ties.

I stand by my assertion that it is more of a setback than advancement.
