I don't agree. Inevitablility was 100% of Hillary! Clinton's appeal. People were lining up to support her because they knew she could be counted on to grant favors and hold grudges once she was elected. But if the prospect of favors and grudges is no longer assured, they are not going to stick around because of her winning personality.
Obama, OTOH, will be a good opponent. It will be an up-or-down, Left vs. Right election. We should all relish the good fight. We might lose, but at least we would lose on substance.
Obama is definately the better candidate for the Dems, especially if they want to run on ‘change’.
Hillary Clinton isn’t ‘change’ she’s the rep for the status quo, such as it is, in 2008.
