Hillary Clinton is removing her support (such as it was) from Barack Obama and plans for a knock-down floor fight for the nomination at the Democrat Convention in Denver.

For political junkies, It doesn't get any better than this.

Hillary’s pitch to the Democrat party is a simple one, and no matter how it is phrased, it amounts to this:

“The Democrat party will be slaughtered nationwide if it depends solely on the negro vote. However, while we will be punished if the negroes do not support us, we will survive.”

“Blacks are only 12% of the US population, and far less than 12% of the voting population. One quarter of black men cannot vote because they have felony convictions. Obama cannot win, but he can destroy the Democrat party if he is the nominee.”

This also means that if Hillary does win, she will systematically purge the far left wing of the Democrat party. She will do this because she has to, they will become her worst enemies. And even though the Democrats will still lose badly in every district that has a black swing vote, a far more moderate Democrat party will recover much faster.

The radical shift of the party in 1968 will be reversed.
