Hillary and Obama are taking too many hits to stay in the race.

Look for the Dems to punt both and go with Al Gore at their Denver DNC convention.

Hillary’s refusal to get out of the race now that she is mathematically eliminated is destroying the DEM party....pass the popcorn.

The Clintons have 80 years between them invested in the Democratic party.

The expected payback to them is the POTUS nomination for Hillary.

If she doesn’t get it - the Clintons will destroy the Democratic party. More power to them I say.

Democrats won’t fracture

Nope they're armored in their own unflinching stupidity. (Let's do a chant "Change change change" in a hip hop beat for Obama that really shows how qualified he is to head the executive branch of governemnt.)

Other than confidently stating that Hillary WILL give the veep spot to Obama and that Obama WILL accept, Mort really doesn’t go into detail as to just why the dems won’t come apart.

I will admit it would be a piece with decades of conditioned obedience. Bill & Hill kicked their sacred minorities (feminists, gays, unions, blacks) in the teeth numerous times during their years in power (Monica, gays-in-the-military, NAFTA, Welfare Reform) and always, after some bucking and snorting they came crawling back to lick “massa’s” boots, but there’s a first time for everything and I really can’t see blacks turning out in significant numbers for Mizz Hillary even if she has Obama as her lawn jockey going into the general.

My guess is that, when all is said and done, the Democratic Party won’t hopelessly fracture regardless of who finally gets nominated. If it’s Clinton, she’ll likely be forced to offer the veep spot to Obama to placate African-Americans and young voters.

I disagree.

The only way that Hillary wins this is if she pulls a fast one with the Super-delegates and if she does, the Democrats can say goodby to the Black and youth vote.

Obama is not going into the Convention leading in the pledged delegates and popular vote and have Hillary snatch it from him and then take second spot on the ticket!

No matter who wins this, the Democrats are going to have at least 25% of each group defecting to vote against the candidate, no matter how much each candidate attempts to reconcile.

We haven't even gotten into April yet, wait until we are into June and if Hillary is still running see how bitter Obama's people are going to be.

It looks like Hillary is setting up Obama for defeat so she can run again in 2012.

The longer this goes, the more fractured the Democrats are going to become.

Each side had a chance for a historical first and whoever loses that chance is going to be very bitter about it.

Finally, McCain doesn't threaten the Democrats as would someone who is more conservative.

So, I don't see a big problem with many Democrats voting for him as a way to get Hillary another shot in 2012, or Blacks just staying home in protest if Obama is robbed.

I'm of the opinion that if Hilary does somehow manage to win the nomination, every Freeper should go to every Obama supporter they can find and say .... “See, Hilary is really all about power”.

Snort. Like Kondracke would know. Sometimes I wonder how someone as clueless as he is can get—and keep—a job on a cable news show as a commentator.
