SAN DIEGO, California (CNN) -- For Democrats, this has been an inspiring election -- and a devastating one. They have two strong candidates, who have thus far wrestled to a draw.
As of today, according to CNN's calculations, Hillary Clinton has 1,148 delegates; Barack Obama, 1,121. Yet the race has divided the party -- female vs. male, white vs. black, black vs. Latino.
The Virginia primary is Tuesday. The Clintons have to get past former Gov. Doug Wilder who thinks Bill Clinton went too far in using race to scare up support from white voters. All the king's horses and all the king's men can't put this rainbow back together again. What was once an embarrassment of riches is now, in many ways, just an embarrassment.
But Democrats do have one thing working in their favor -- Republicans. With their nominating process all but wrapped up and with a head start over squabbling Democrats who are going to spend the coming months destroying one another while the GOP can concentrate on unifying the party for the big show in the fall, you'd think Republicans would be celebrating. Instead, they're suicidal. Or at least that's the case with the loud and radical fringe that has declared John McCain unacceptable because he's a free thinker they can't control.

And we see how well Schwarzenegger has turned out!
Gee, I wonder why McCain and the Governator are troubled by the right? Maybe it’s because they both are frauds claiming to be conservatives. Naw, that couldn’t be it.
I remember Huch Hewitt, Michael Medved and Sean Hannity pimping hard for Ahnuld
I remember specifically Hannity. It disappointed me a lot!
Loud and radical fringe (LETS TRY THE NATIONAL Media, Inc CNN as a radical fringe)!
Explains his love affair with Rudy this past year.
Reuben is another one of those liberals who thinks they can string together a bunch of half-truths into clever arrangements and thinks it equals an argument.
And California Republicans have plenty of time to teach class because many don't have jobs. They've been voted out of office. And when they run for new offices, they get wiped out. All Schwarzenegger has done is win two statewide elections and earn a favorability rating of more than 60 percent. So who should be learning from whom?
Lefty Navarrette hails Arnold's accomplishment of running conservatives out of office and destroying the GOP. He is gleeful at the prospect of McCain doing the same on a nationwide basis (while opening the borders and declaring 20 million new U.S. citizens.)
No thanks, Ruben.
Exactly. 2008 is the Revenge of the Country Clubbers. Except it will be short lived. Hilarious, but short lived.
Did you see the whine from one of Arnie’s big silk-socked donors?
He wants RULES that no one can say anything bad about elected Republicans.
Gaskets are starting to explode because folks won’t follow these “progressives.”

What a pansy ass. No wonder we are in trouble.

That’s me. Right wingnut. Crazy Conservative. Wacko.
Don’t forget bigot!
I am surprised he left that out.
McCain’s trials on right similar to Schwarzenegger’s
***And the results for the country will be similar to aRINOld’s in Kahleeforneeya; even then, the RINOs won’t own up to the disaster they’ve brought on.
