"Raising billions won't erase Clinton's scandals or vapid centrism"

4. Notes on the churn

Its intriguing to watch. This behemoth of a campaign cast a shadow over everything, Eclipsing all other possibilities...while it was still floating in that magic pre-announcement space. Once grounded, it immediately starts to sag under its own weight...sinking a bit into the mire, just a little bit...settling into place rather than racing ahead with a big idea. Its early on, but the momentum is fading. She could, at any time, rip free from her handlers and honestly engage the people in a discourse on the future of our democracy, but I don't think its in her. But the bright spots are found in the churn at the edge. A humble effervescence of small candidates now bubbles into real political conversation. With the lack of movement from the Leviathan, there is nothing much to say about her platform beyond the running commentary on stagecraft. No, the real attention is shifting to the democratic conversation taking place among second tier candidates. I am rooting for them all at this point, even the heir apparent. Give me more! Bring on the churn!
