    The Proverbial Cleft Stick

    @Atlanta214:

    So you and like-minded Hillary supporters will turn into Republicans if Obama gets the nomination (note: "steals" it? What, does Hillary own the nomination?).

    Contrariwise, I will not vote for Senator Clinton if she gets the nomination (although unlike you, I will not vote Republican). There are other anti-Hillary Democrats who feel the same way, I know.

    So it would seem that the Democratic Party is screwed once again. If Obama gets it, they lose you and may lose some of the women's vote. If Clinton gets it, they lose me and probably some of the black vote. Either way, John McCain and Karl Rove must be very, very happy right now.

    I have no solution to offer, unfortunately. I'm merely pointing out the problem. Maybe someone else can see a way out.
