And in an incumbent race the DNC will favor the incumbent and not care too much about the John Wolfe, Jr. or the Bill Bradley.

I think it's wrong but that's how I see it.

Hillary Clinton’s substantial lead over Bernie Sanders in the latest national Monmouth University Poll is basically unchanged from October. Most Democrats and Democratic-leaning voters would be satisfied with Clinton as the nominee, even if they are not currently supporting her in the party contest.

Clinton currently has the support of 59% of Democrats nationwide, which is similar to the 57% support she held in October right after the first debate. Sanders gets 26% support, which is basically unchanged from his 24% support two months ago. Martin O’Malley has 4% support, up from 1%.

Elections are not based on national numbers or we would have had a President Gore. Have you heard of the Electoral College?

She show me a poll where Hillary gets the needed Electoral votes.
