Does Hillary Clinton Have Nomination Wrapped Up?

Robert Shrum: “Handicappers in the presidential race abhor the opposite of a vacuum–a campaign two years out where one candidate seems to blot out the entire field. Thus a mini-chorus now rises, and may swell, questioning Hillary Clinton’s apparent lock on the 2016 Democratic nomination. It’s a predictable reflex, but in cold, hard reality, logic suggests that the lock is authentic, not just apparent. And in modern history, or virtually all American history, Hillary’s inevitability is unprecedented for a non-incumbent.”

Markos Moulitsas: “There is no alternative to Hillary this cycle.”
