The DNC's track record is...mixed, at best.
Since 1972, when "electability" became a primary concern, the following have been nominated:
Jimmy Carter
Walter Mondale
Mike Dukakis
Bill Clinton
Al Gore
John Kerry
Barack Obama
Hillary Clinton
Joe Biden

None of the winners were the "establishment favorite", though, to be fair, this is in part because most of the favorites stayed out of 1992 because Bush I was looking strong at that point. Clinton and Obama made nice, of course.

Man I remember when the Democrats were pushing Clinton hard over Obama but couldnt stop Obamas surging popularity. A very competitive and testy primary if I recall
