I've never been the biggest Daenerys fan out there, but I don't think it really matters if Aegon has the real claim or not, because Dany's got the dragons. Quite a few characters point this out, too. The only reason she can't just smash everyone is that she can't control them. As soon as she can her claim to the throne is every bit as valid as those of her first forefathers in the Seven Kingdoms - i.e. Dragon Smash.

I don't get the Dany hate, though. She's naive, and sheltered, and sixteen, and GRRM unlike so many other shitty writers out there actually makes that matter. I do however find her pretty bland. But then I found Jon bland right up until ADwD, so maybe Dany will go through some interesting development, too.

Aside from the dragons though, Dany has one major advantage over the other throne contenders, and I'm glad GRRM touched on it in the last book: she can marry one of others and double up her strength. Except Myrcella, obviously, but I think it's heavily implied Dorne is going to throw behind one of the Targs anyway.

I think the problem is that Daenerys didn't use to be bland. I found Jon bland until ADwD, because he really just seemed to be a teenager in a crappy situation. Then he grew up. But Daenerys' storyline was interesting from the beginning, her character development was interesting .... and then it just went off in the wrong direction. From what I've heard a lot of people seriously liked Daenerys until she went dumb in ADwD, and that's way more disappointing than disliking a character from the start.

Also, how can that girl still be naive and sheltered after everything that happened to her? GoT and CoK showed a young girl who was forced to grow up extremely quickly and who actually matured quite a bit in a short time. Recently she has not just gone back to acting like a little girl, but to acting like a stupid little girl, which is even worse.

Also, the other throne contenders can theoretically marry the daughter/sister of potential allies, which is what Renly (and later the Lannisters) did to gain the Tyrells as allies. Okay, except Stannis who is already married but that can change, right? And that's actually an easier alliance than Daenerys marrying a man who would want to be king in his own right, not the king consort of a queen who rules herself.
