"Electability" is a crock. John Kerry was supposedly the most electable Democrat, but what liberal today doesn't wish *someone else* had been nominated in 2004? In 2000, the GOP decided George W. Bush was "electable" but he lost the popular vote to a wooden environmentalist, managed to become president anyway, and became the biggest albatross to hang around the GOP neck since Watergate.
Hillary's supporters know that she can be controversial. So my guess is that they are sticking with her anyways because they think she'd be the best President for this country. Given her command of the issues, willingness to reach across the aisle, and strong and determined personality, who can blame them?
