What would it take for Clinton to concede defeat? An insider remembers -- and draws lessons from -- the backroom deals that ended another brutal, racially charged Democratic slugfest.
  • Ease up, people

    Can we please start to make peace here? We're ripping each other apart so that John McCain can come down and pick at our corpses like a Vulture with Karl Rove and Rush Limbaugh and Ann Coulter sitting in their perches snickering at us.

    Obama supporters need to recognize that Hillary supporters are loyal democrats who want what's best for the country and Clinton supporters need to take a fresh look at our nominee and see his qualities, which are many. Don't give up on him as "unelectable," just because Hillary made the argument that she was "more electable." (and you believed your candidate, naturally.)

    He's also not unpatriotic, weak, Muslim, or elitist... don't buy into those rovian stereotypes. He's your candidate now. He's OUR candidate now. Make peace with it and climb on board the bandwagon. There's lots of room, and beating the snot out of the R's this fall is going to be a blast.
