We hear a lot about unifying this and dividing that. But what we don't ever hear is the scenario if Clinton was nominated as the democratic candidate.
Let's let our minds explore the scenario:
She would gain all the majority of the votes on the far left. She would gain the majority of the votes on the near left, with ease. She would have nearly 100% of votes in the middle without lifting a finger. And she would rope in about half the votes of the near right with some effort, but not much given their disgust with their "choice" McCain. On top of that, with an easy win in November against McCain (childs-play, with both hands tied behind her back), she would bring to the Oval Office, experience, tenacity and a strong economic repeat of the last Clinton administration.
Not one reporter, not one GOP official, not one democrat will look you squarely in the face and deny that Clinton has the potential strength that I just outlined. Their eyes will dart around, they will change the subject, laugh nervously or even attack you as a diversion for bringing the subject up, but they cannot look you straight in the eye and deny the foregoing..
In contrast, Obama is losing votes on the far left (his one big hope) like fleas from a drowning dog. The near left is tenuously committed but skittish of his neocon moonlighting.. The middle is onto his act and is thinking "either stay home in November, Vote McCain or protest with a Hillary Write-In." The near right is thinking "anyone but Obama". On top of that, no matter if he gets the nomination or not, he will not win in November. The math, and his personality and lack of experience will assure that. Even if he somehow made the Oval Office through some miracle of God, he would bring inexperience, waffling and not one practial idea of how to bail our country out of the economic grindhalt it's in today.
Just some things for superdelegates to consider before August..
