Ratmedia wishful thinking. The 20% factor will combine with the bradley factor and the GOP nominee will crush the rat’s nominee. PERIOD.
If the nominee is Obama - as mathematics still would indicate, despite Clintons victories in Ohio and Pennsylvania - thousands of newly registered Democrats will vote, and vote enthusiastically. Even the Clinton machine will go into hyperdrive to try to help make sure he beats McCain.
The Clintons did virtually nothing for Kerry in ‘04. They were happy he lost so that it would clear the way for Hillary in ‘08. The word is that Hillary wants Obama to lose to McCain this year so that she can run again in ‘12. I expect Billary to sit out the general election and let Obama crash and burn.
In the Clintonian mind, Hillary will be the front runner for 2012 if Obama loses the general election. Not sure what they are smoking; this campaign has proven that lotsa Democrats do not love the Clintons. It seems a stretch to me that she’s the front runner for 2012 after this rough primary season.
