She and her supporters will have to make a positive case, and most likely deal with being challenged from the left. There's a tone of dismissiveness and entitlement by some here that, imo, is not helpful. You're not doing your candidate any favors or credit by name calling or accusing those looking at other options of being delusional. You're not likely to convince anyone by acting as if the whole process is beneath her and we should all just give her the nomination now and be done with it. We have a Primary process for a reason, and if she runs and gets the nomination, going through that will make her a better candidate in the General- and if she can't make it through the Primary process she shouldn't be, and probably wouldn't win, in the General.
It is not so self-evident to everyone that she's the best choice that we get to just skip the whole thing. She and her supporters have to convince the voters, some of whom include those pesky lefties, that she should be the nominee.
