The young senator makes history not only in terms of race, while a determined Hillary Clinton delays the inevitable a bit longer.

    No Way

    "Unifying" behind Obama is to accept the following:

    - New Liberal Fascist brownshirts on the internet and in the MSM telling what remains of the old democrats what to do and what to think, no questions or protestations allowed. If you don't do what they say they will spread all manner of lies to destroy you, as they did to the Clintons.

    - The Democratic Party becomes hostage to the Black Vote. 98% bloc voting for Black candidates. Not just in this primary, but in all elections, local, state and national. A gun pointed at the head of all Democratic officials at all levels.

    - The death of the Clinton Center. A surge to the Hard Left by what remains of this political party, in the manner of MoveOn.org, Michael Moore, Rev. Wright, et al. This is not your parents' Democratic Party anymore. That political party is dead. You know I'm right. You feel it in your bones. It is a sad day for all of us.

    The only way to prevent this from happening is for Obama to lose the general in November. It's your choice. It's your vote. Don't be railroaded. McCain will have at most a single term and the House and Senate will be dominated by Democrats.

    The country will survive. But don't give the Democratic Party away to these radicals. It will die.
