The big question could be answered at tonight’s first Democratic presidential debate of the fall season – Can Hillary Rodham Clinton be stopped?
Not that anyone will definitively topple the New York senator tonight, but will any of her party rivals at least try to shake loose her grip on the frontrunner mantle?
The evidence of Clinton’s potential invincibility for the nomination is mounting. National and key-state polls show her widening the gap well into the double digits, although Iowa surveys still show a tight race. The latest CNN New Hampshire survey puts Clinton 23 percentage points ahead of the field, up from a 9-point lead in July.
Clinton’s biggest vulnerability could be the doubts nagging many Democratic voters about her elect-ability, but so far her opponents for the party nomination have not directly exploited those concerns in a debate.
Tonight’s debate at Dartmouth College in New Hampshire, moderated by NBC’s Tim Russert, airs live on MSNBC at 9:00 PM ET.
