The Democratic National convention will be interesting, especially if Hillary Clinton's supporters stage a protest to have her nominated instead of Obama.
These conventions....anything can happen.
Not going to happen. The only Hillary supporters that would try are PUMAs and pretty much outcasts.
Most folks have accepted the Unity thing, including myself. I want Hillary to understand that she ran a campaign that until it turned completely negative (mainly because of her surrogates), had a chance of upstaging Obama's campaign.
Once her surrogates (Ferraro, Penn and her own husband) started with the nastiness, her chances diminished and crashed.
Obama may not have the experience that some people demand but I can say that my own parents will not be voting for McCain and that's a change from a few months ago when they were unsure of Obama. They've never voted 3rd party in their lives.
However, they know the costs of survival and the cost of heating oil and food poses a huge risk to their income.
It will take years for us to see any benefit from drilling and our best bet is to continue to look at alternative energy and what it can do for our country.
America's
wrong(right)-wing will continue to stir up fears about Obama's lack of experience and other lies. That's what people do.
When people
KNOW that their goose is cooked, they resort to the fear factor to try and reign in their base.
It's not going to work this time. McCain is left to abuse the fear factor because he has nothing of substance to offer America.
To be fair, if he were the John McCain of 2000 (which is long dead), he'd likely poll very close to Obama, if not better.
You'd just have to be an idiot (no offense..seriously) to vote for John McCain.
