What if Hillary doesnt do all that well in the Iowa caucus'?

Will there still be those supporters that think she's the one to bring real Democrats back to the polls?
Can she win against the Republican Tea Baggers?

Well before Democrats start their long path towards the nominating process, the first order of business should be to replace every current DNC exec and especially the DNC chairman. Why does she still have that job. To keep Debbie Wasserman Schultz on as chairman would mean that Democrats are satisfied with the status quo.
So if nothing changes at the DNC than Democrats are headed for another "trouncing" in 2016.

I do agree it is probably time for DWS to go, but that is a decision Obama needs to make.

4. It doesn't matter. The important thing to grasp is Clinton is be granted a phony privileged position

based on name recognition that won't be hold up in a general at all functionally and the fervent nature of some supporters that also has no meaningful way to translate to a general.

Further that such a position only weakens Clinton if she does win the nomination by refusing to temper that steel in the fire of a competitive primary.

Hillary can try to get a job, like the million or so others that are unemployed and cannot find work.
