A coronation is very poor preparation for the general election. An uncontested Hillary Clinton nomination in 2008 could have led to a loss that year, even after 8 years of disaster under W Bush.

Right and honestly that was what turned me off about Clinton in ‘08. The whole campaign felt like a coronation and her campaign acted like it was somehow heresy that anyone let alone some junior senator from Illinois should be challenging her for the nomination. I feel we made the right decision in first nominating Obama and then re-electing him over his opponents. I am still don’t know if Hillary is the answer. I don’t question that she has strengths as a candidate but I do feel that as I said we can’t just hand her the nomination and two I think she does have weaknesses as well.
