Mediaboss Marketing

Here is a headline that you might see in an ad from a Democratic presidential candidate running against Hillary Clinton:

This comes courtesy of CNBC, which commissioned a poll asking 500 people "with investable assets of $1 million or more" (this is one poll that, safe to say, we'd all like to be a part of) which of nine potential presidential candidates they prefer. And it has been bouncing around social media this week as we all feverishly try to imagine a scenarioin which Clinton might actually not beat the motley crew of Democrats who will run against her.

How could Sen. Elizabeth Warren see thisand notimmediately decide to forma presidential exploratory committee, you might ask.

This poll is also far less than meets the eye.

Here are the choices offered, along with what percentage of the vote each candidate got:

First of all, yes, Clinton is No. 1. This is also not how people are going to vote for the new president. The only place where this kind of election takes place is Louisiana, and even then, there's a two-candidate runoff if nobody gets to 50 percent.

Clinton especially benefits from this format because:

1) She's more well-known than the other candidates, save Vice President Biden. The rest of the field, quite simply, aren't household names.

2) While the Democrat/Republican split is pretty even overall, Clinton is far more of a favorite on the Democratic side. Hence, she takes 72 percent of Democrats -- aboutlike she does in primary polling -- whilethe Republicans all split up the vote pretty evenly -- Jeb Bush at 36 percent, Chris Christie at 19 percent, Scott Walker at 18 percent. Clinton's share of the overall total is thus inflated.

3) There are more Republicans than Democrats. Yes, it probably only makes a small difference, but there are threeDemocrats, one Democratic-caucusing independent/socialist senator, and five Republicans. Again, that's more people splitting up one party's vote.

Hillary Clinton is the preferred candidate of millionaires? Thats doubtful.

She is giving speeches at a dizzying clip. Popping up at the White House to chat with President Barack Obama. Schmoozing with Prince William and his wife, Kate, during the royal couples recent trip to New York.

It all suggests a Hillary Clinton presidential bid is under way.

Only theres no candidate.

Mrs. Clinton hasnt announced she is running. And its now looking as if she could wait until spring before she officially jumps into the 2016 presidential race. The last time she ran, she declared in January of 2007. Were she to stick to the same timetable, shed tell us of her plans next month.

Why wait? After all, most people already seem convinced shes running, and Mrs. Clinton has done little to discourage the idea.

Lets look at both sides of the argument.

Three reasons it might be in her interest to delay an announcement:

Self-interest. Once she declares, shes on the hook to release a personal financial disclosure form. That will provide fresh fodder for critics who believe former President Bill Clinton and Mrs. Clinton have entered the ranks of the super-rich, propelled by six-figure speaking fees. Theres a palpable strain of populism in the Democratic Party, personified by Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D., Mass.). A spotlight on the Clintons personal wealth could stir up the left, stoking calls for a primary challenge from Ms. Warren.

Money. Some Democrats have complained that donors wont commit to candidates not namedHillary Clinton while shes a potential candidate.Shes effectively frozen the Democratic field. By keeping people guessing, Mrs. Clinton starves potential primary opponents of the campaign money they need to begin a credible presidential bid.
