She can raise money, or rather Bill raises it for her. And she is a bulldog, but you are underestimating the resentment building on both sides by the prolonged trench warfare. If McCain wins, who doesn't strike fear into the hearts of anybody and he's not hated, the sideliners will be the reason the Dems lose it.

It will be interesting to see if more overt racism is deployed against Obama. There are plenty of white people who, if you ask them to name racists, list a bunch of black people. They do this, apparently, without noticing the irony of their own actions. With the whirlwind of the election, such persons may not be able to help themselves.

Nice use of the Republican talking points, though. |

How do you envision Clinton becoming the nominee without destroying the party? And if she can raise lots of money, where will it come from?

I would like to see Hillary and McCain in the octagon. That would be good.

Maybe you could save us the time of reading your posts, and just link directly to Obama press releases.

Let's see, raise taxes, regulate, create new bureaucracies in health care and other industries, and general strangle the economy through micromanagement. That sounds like a great plan. Both of them are lost. Obama speaks better but he still doesn't have a clue.

"Economy may be an issue too?" lol! Nice insight. I think I should link you to Obama press releases. Clearly you need to be reading something.

Question for you, though. Why in the world did the Democrats come up with this "superdelegate" system if everyone thinks they should just go with the popular vote? I actually think Hillary has a point in her argument that the point of the superdelegates is to make an intelligent decision regarding the nominee. The superdelegates are in a position where they can ignore delegate counts from places like Utah (which the Dems will never win anyway) and look at the delegates from the battleground states. They also can consider the fact that Obama is still a relative unknown--all the dirt is already out on Hillary. Which is why it's close--Obama has NOT yet been under the microscope as Hillary has. |

*shrug* Perhaps. I'd wager I know as much about the economy as Obama does.
