Thinking 2016- and the poll results.

I would have hoped for a more robust group given Obamas exit. Especially with Joe Biden already looking marginal in popularity. But what we have is the Clinton expectation. If she stepped out, I’d bet we would get that robust group. Apparently many would be’s fear the uphill battle against a very powerful set of experienced well monied allies. So I’d say at this point if she does not run the expectation is inhibiting the race needlessly.
