"While I'd love to see the Beast defeated in the primaries, having her limping into the general works for me as well. If Obama comes out on top, it should be one largest landslide victories since the Rats nominated Mondale.

But if it's a bloody battle between now and convention and she wins nomination, I suggest that many blacks will be so pissed (and wright or wrong will believe that she stole the nomination) that they will stay home rather than vote for her.

This could have a lasting impact on the overall Black vote and DemoRats--one can only hope?

"We just have to keep the heat up on McCain to make sure he doesn't go running more left than he has.

How much further left can he go? Does ANYONE really believe his platitudes and affirmations regarding his being a "true conservative?" Yeah Right!!!

McCain is neither Hillary or Obama and that is going to have to suffice for now..I’ll vote for him in spite of his
not being a true conservative.He’s better than they are.

All this talk about how the Dems are not going to be united in November seems dubious to me. She is already planning to offer Obama the VP slot if she wins the nomination. He could accept, thinking he will be the next POTUS after Hillary.

If it’s Hillary/Obama, she gets the youth vote, plus McCain can’t attack her on defense as well as he could Obama.

If republicans keep voting for her, there is a risk. But McCain as POTUS isn’t that wonderful either. If he succeeds in his amnesty push, in a few years all the new Dem voters will take control of all 3 branches.
