10. I like Hillary more than Webb, Chafee, and O'Malley.

None of those 3 are exciting. I don't actually think any of them have substantial differences with Hillary Clinton, and all of them are boring white guys with no excitement. Biden has a better argument, but I still think Hillary is a better candidate. Bernie is the only candidate in the race who has substantial policy differences from the mainstream Democratic Party, and all of these other people are pretty mainstream.
