that's why she leads he opponents by over 20% in most polls.


Hillary's odds at of winning the nomination are about 99% - far better than Romney's odds were at this point in 2012. She is up by over 20% in "polls" because she has name recognition and there are no other realistic choices available. In 2016, the only realistic Democrat Party choice is very old, very white woman with no real accomplishments. The game has basically been pre-decided by the machine.

But what's amusing is that, while the Democrat Party process is basically an orchestrated coronation, it doesn't seem to be fashionable to be pro-Hillary when talking to other people. Avoiding mentioning any support for Hillary allows a person to avoid having to actually defend her actual activities and historical views. It is much more in fashion to claim to be for Bernie, who plays the role of an ancient white male version of Elizabeth Warren and will claim to be able to give out as much free stuff as anybody could ever want. If I never saw a poll and only knew what I hear about who people claim to support, I'd assume that Bernie would win the primaries in a landslide. Everybody, including you, know that you'll be supporting Hillary and her baggage, but Bernie provides a "safe space" for Democrats to hide in during the machine's coronation process.
