1) The chief argument people have made against my book, Can She Be Stopped?, is that Hillary will not be the nominee of the Democratic party because Democrats don’t like her. This conviction is the result entirely of anecdotal accounts and does not jibe with repeated polls demonstrating just how well-liked she is among Democrats nationwide and how she remains 15 to 20 points ahead of any other contender for the nomination at this point.
She just faced voters in the New York State primary with a single-issue anti-war candidate running against her. And she crushed him, receiving 83 percent of the primary vote among Democrats. Granted, she’s no Joe Lieberman and her rival was not a self-funded rich guy like Ned Lamont, but still those are pretty commanding numbers in an extremely anti-war state. I think these primary results should quiet some of the “Democrats don’t like Hillary” talk and focus conservative attention on the real threat posed by her presidential candidacy.
