As for corporate support, you're right. She will have a challenge there, up front. She will have the support of left-leaning, socially-conscience businesses. I say "up front" because, if she is a challenge for the nomination, more corporate support will jump aboard the bandwagon.
Also, it's not a given that a progressive agenda cannot overcome big money. It's not all that uncommon for the biggest spender to lose in an election. If people aren't buying Hillary's message, all the money in the world isn't going to help her.
There's no doubt Hillary is a strong contender. Leads like she has right now have been overcome countless times. She already been roundly defeated by a black man from Chicago's South Side with the name of Barack Hussein Obama. Also, we don't need Hillary at this time in history. We need Elizabeth Warren, not who will fight but who IS, fighting for the little guy. That include (most of) you and me. Hillary hasn't done much of anything for me lately.
