3. to be honest with you
I've seen more people on DU "crowning her" -- before beating her with said crown -- and accusing her of thinking it's a done deal than I've seen Hillary or anyone in her campaign do. If she assumed she was the Nominee, she wouldn't be working as hard as she is in Iowa or New Hampshire. She wouldn't be still be shaking hands and kissing babies and doing all the things a politician has to do to introduce themselves to people.

I think this "air of inevitability" is something her opponents (and their supporters) attempt to tag her with to engender a sense of anger in people so they WON'T support her. I've never once heard Hillary boast that she's got it sewn up and it's a done deal.

Quite the contrary, she's a smart enough person -- and politician -- to recognize her work is doubly hard as the alleged "front runner".

Just my two cents.
