In this article, Hillary is noted as having 32% of the Iowa Caucus?

If Hillary were a really strong candidate she should be taking much more-------to be believable she needs 51% of the Democrat votes in Iowa. Even then that leaves 49% of the voters who supported other nominees.

Will the Edwards and Obama supporters rally behind Hillary. Only if one of them is the VP candidate---that implies to this writer that Obama will be the likely VP nominee as he brings in more potential new voters for the Dems.

What then happens to the Edwards supporters who went through one loss and don't want to lose again-----will they rally behind Hillary? Or move over to the Republican Nominee?

NOW, LET'S CONSIDER A DIFFERENT SCENARIO-----

Hillary has more past and current baggage in her background than any candidate I have ever observed or read about----and not favorable.

Is it possible that some Democrats sensing a defeat with Hillary will want to put forth an independent candidate? Or, can you imagine even supporting the Republican nominee.
