Yep, lots of happy talk because the Dem's are still fighting over who is going to be the nominee. In the meantime the Dems are hogging the spotlight and mobilizing voters in every state in the nation setting records in registration and fund raising. They are going to have a formidable network in place for the general election.
You can bet that there will be a nominee before the Dem convention. Hillary will be dropping out. Obama will emerge from the lovefest, i.e., the Dem convention, with all of the momentum, funding, and organization to prevent a third Bush term.
We will pit our party maverick, the oldest man ever to run for President for the first time, against the young, vigorous biracial guy who will promise to end an unpopular war, provide national health care, and restore a flagging economy. The GOP is facing the perfect storm with an unpopular President, an unpopular war, a flagging economy, and a GOP candidate who can't energize his own base and who holds positions on critical issues that are not supported by the majority of his own party. This spells a major disaster, which will become more apparent as we head into the general election.
