It draws off people who are attracted by his policies. They can get a 'twofer', or at least think they can. They can elect a woman President AND get the policies they want. Of course, as soon as the primary is over, I expect her to zoom to the right so fast folks' heads spin if she's the nominee, in that patented Clintonian triangulation to try and win RWers. At which point, the people who thought they were getting that twofer get hit with the 'lesser evil' 'who else you gonna vote for' argument.
