In the end it is politics and anything could happen. She could come out the gate fast and win the first handful of states and in the past that would potentially be enough to seal the nomination, but they changed the rule year so even if she wins the first few several states she has to share the delegates with the other candidates so it is likely that no candidate will be able to run away with the election early on and those with deep pockets and that appear to the more moderate crowds outside the bible belt have an advantage.
