In politics, as in real life, no one wants to be the last to climb aboard a crowded train that is pulling out of the station — there might not be any seats left. And that is precisely the scenario that Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton’s presidential campaign is aggressively trying to promote.
This morning’s announcement that the New York Democrat collected $27 million for the fundraising quarter just ended will likely enhance her invincibility campaign. She easily topped her closest Democratic rival, Sen. Barack Obama of Illinois, by a margin of $5 million. Former North Carolina Sen. John Edwards was way behind with $7 million raised in the past three months.
But is it too soon for Clinton to peak? Buyer’s remorse might set in among Democrats who worry that she is not ultimately electable. Still, those nervous Democrats might worry more about missing her train to the nomination.
