As a Californian, I'm THANKFUL our presidential primary was NOT in June.

Seriously, though, if Hillary had not already won CA, she may not have had a neck-and-neck case to present.

I personally hope she pursues until the August convention in Denver. As horrifying as it is, she is the lesser of two evils here. If a Democrat is going to win in Nov, better her than Obama.

I was a precinct inspector yesterday (here in California) and we had a few people coming in thinking that there was a vote for the Hillary/Obama contest.

At least a couple wanted “CHANGE!” Or maybe they were homeless looking for change. They left HOPE-less. < /smirk >
