...indicative of her actual support, not as a function of her gender but because she is the only woman in the race. My secondary point is that her support will wane as others drop out and their former supporters are distributed among the remaining candidates.

It is simplistic and obvious. I wonder then why no mention of it has been made. There has been no disclaimer. Sen. Clinton's poll number reflect the fact that she is the only female candidate. Allowing ourselves to get caught up in her numbers as indicative of the inevitability of her success distorts reality, in my view.

Tied to her sex? Only her poll numbers. Mis-conclude much?
