is having worked on a campaign on your resume--any campaign--perceived to propel you on to bigger and better things?

I'm guessing this may be the case, because I really don't see her campaign going anywhere (given that the big Democratic ideology-driven donors are giving her a hard pass), though likely a bit further than Tulsi's.

"winning" is obviously the top outcome, but beating the expectations game can also be beneficial.

Warren, Harris, Gillibrand, Booker, maybe Sanders, maybe Klobuchar, maybe Brown...Remember when Governors ran for President? Same for the Pubs; Cruz, Rubio, Sasse...Proximity to money I guess.

Bullock and Inslee, and possibly Patrick are likely to get in.

Have the others announced? I hope they do. We need some DC outsiders in the mix.

I don’t see her being able to break out of the pack against more dynamic candidates like Warren or Harris or O’Rourke. She’s to blah.

On the other hand, she did just win re-election with a huge margin.

That’s all she should hear on the campaign trail.

Outside of the blogosphere, I don't think the average voter remembers that this was an issue.

in November would seem to confirm that.

who betrayed a fellow Democrat.

Solid progressive and great spokesperson for our party. As I've said before, she will be right near the top of my list. We have some great names being thrown about. Looks like we are going to have a lot of overlap.
