It wasn't supposed to be like this for Hillary Clinton

With New York primary day upon us, the battle for the Democratic presidential nominee is far closer than the party originally thought it would be.

Most observers — including this one — believed the Democratic primary would be less a primary and more of a coronation for former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton. But then Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders happened, and many Democrats — especially young liberals — saw a chance to back a revolutionary more like Barack Obama instead of the cookie-cutter politician that is Clinton.
