One would expect that in what is basically a two-person race. He's just as much the "not Hillary" as anyone else could be if he wasn't there.
I mean sure, he has a long road ahead of him, but he's got a name recognition problem, not a dislike problem.
This may be true of Democrats (a problem in and of itself), but his brand of politics is poison in a general election. You're asking for a Mondale-esque loss with him.
It's like how I was into Ron Paul in 2008. I didn't have any fantasies of him actually winning, and it wasn't as if he was going to have the sort of crossover appeal that wins an election.
