Not only is she increasing her lead but Dems support her on the issues vs. Biden and Sanders across the board.
Meanwhile there is no meaningful lane for Biden to come in at all. Why come in to save a day that is going fine without him?
Andrea Mitchell has more breathless 'information' today that says he will make his decision in the next 48 hours. This according to a few unnamed sources. As per usual. Then as per usual. there is a third such unnamed source who admits that no one really knows exactly when Joe will make up his Hamlet like mind.
We've seen this movie before and you don't need to go back to Shakespeare's Hamlet. It's the Mario Cuomo thing of keeping yourself in the conversation forever by always being on the fence.
As for Hillary we have more evidence that she is sitting very pretty after her stellar debate performance.
"As we continue to wait for Joe Biden to tell us whether he will run for president, a new CNN poll brings us what I believe is the most comprehensive polling yet on which candidate Democrats prefer on the issues — and Hillary Clinton leads Biden and Bernie Sanders on all of them."
"The new poll casts doubt on whether there is all that much of a clamor among Democrats for Biden to enter the race."
"The poll finds Clinton leading Sanders and Biden among self-described Democratic voters and Dem-leaning independent voters: she has 45 percent; Sanders has 29 percent; and Biden has 18 percent. Take Biden out of the equation and Clinton leads Sanders by 56-33"

On issues she also leads across the board-the economy, healthcare. the environment, gun control, race relations and even Bernie's core issue, income inequality.
"A Monmouth University Poll shows the same thing:
"In the latest showing of post-debate momentum, Hillary Clinton commands the Democratic field in a new Monmouth University national poll released Monday."
"Clinton took 48 percent, while her closest competitor in Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders earned just 21 percent. Vice President Joe Biden, who is weighing a run but has not committed, sits at 17 percent. For Clinton, it's an increase from 42 percent in the same poll last month, and nearly back to the level of support she enjoyed in August."
"Asked whether they would throw their vote behind Biden if he chooses to run, 10 percent said it was very likely and 31 percent said it was somewhat likely that they would."
"If Biden were to decide against running, however, Clinton's advantage jumps to 57 percent, while Sanders picks up just three additional points, at 24 percent. The figures are similar to those released by CNN/ORC earlier Monday, which found that 56 percent of voters would go for Clinton if Biden stays out of the race."
"Biden leads the field in terms of net favorability (73 percent to 9 percent), while Clinton is close behind (77 percent to 18 percent). Sanders' net favorability is a solid 49 points, though 28 percent do not have an opinion of him."

"So, Hillary Clinton. Skipping down the street. Sun is shining. A small and brightly colored bird is perching on her shoulder. Look — is that a rainbow?"
"Wow, what a good month she’s having. Certainly she’s due, by the sheer laws of probability. Nobody has as many bad months as Hillary Clinton. But this is really one heck of a run. Do you think there’s been an intervention? I just looked up a magic spell for “achieving a dream job” and it involves candles, cinnamon incense and bergamot oil. Just saying."

Yes, it must be pretty great being Hillary Clinton right now. She deserves it, as she had a pretty brutal three months before late September. Yes, the boobirds will immediately chirp, she has that Benghazi Committee testimony coming up. Yes, but even Rush Limbaugh admits that they aren't going to lay a glove on her in that testimony.

As Gail Collins puts it:
"Wow, what a good month she’s having. Certainly she’s due, by the sheer laws of probability. Nobody has as many bad months as Hillary Clinton. But this is really one heck of a run.

Indeed, it's more an more looking like the one who broke the law may be Trey Gowdy himself.
