She is a polarizing personality and does not have enough supporters to win a national election. It. will. never. happen. And if by some miracle she does get the nomination in 2012 Obama will drive her into the ground. Greg, you need to be pragmatic about this. If you guys lose any more ground you will have no say at all in shaping policy. I'm as liberal as all get-out and even I don't want a one-party system, Democrat or otherwise. |
