And I'm convinced that, after reading her book, she thinks that taking back the government from the 1% will be her priority. I think that she thinks she can win with the issue that the 99% isn't being represented (and it's not) which, in the long run, will not only be good for the country but good for the party. Yes, she's a team player but not at the expense of watching her country and the Democratic Party continue to sell out to the 1%. She has a sense of duty and I believe she'll be true to that.
