Yes, we can.

Dear Hillary supporters:

When If Obama officially receives the Democratic nomination for President, will you then toss your support over to him? Vote McCain? Stay Home?

I will, without hesitation, toss my support to Obama. This crap about, "if my candidate doesn't win, I'll vote for McCain or just not vote" peeves me to no end.

There are two Supreme Court Justices that are not likely to last for another four years. If they were to be replaced by the types of judges that McCain has pledged to support, we are royally screwed. I urge anyone who is contemplating following through on their professed threat to vote for McCain if they candidate doesn't win the nomination to carefully consider the ramifications of a judicial branch that is completely lopsided before making that decision.

Hell, I even know of a few conservatives who shudder at that prospect and have cited it as the number one reason they will not vote for McCain.

Different worlds....justice openings are one of the only reasons I would vote FOR McCain.

If Obama wins, I'm going to find it amusing should his nominations be filibustered in the same way Bush's were, listening to the left side of the aisle screech about how unfair that is.

Does it make it right? No, just like WB alluded to with the open primaries. I hate open primaries. Doesn't stop me from enjoying the turmoil. Maybe no both sides will finally agree that open primaries are a bad idea.

BY the way....as far as counting all votes....if Florida and Michigan were counter, wouldn't Hillary have the popular vote lead? I thoought I heard that. What the dems choose to do is their own business. They wouldn't be in this mess if they hadn't set up their primaries as porportionally awarded so that super delegates could make the decision. They've gotten just what they have asked for.

That was true yesterday (and then only if Michigan was counted, which is most universally agreed to not be at all reasonable since Obama wasn't on the ballot) but now even that is not the case. Add both in and Obama still has the lead. Plus there would be the fact that his "vote counts" from most caucus states (which he mostly won decisively) are just estimates and most likely understated.

I'm an Obama supporter, so the question does not apply to me. However... If Clinton should manage to win the nomination, I will vote for her without hesitation in November – albeit with a firm grasp on my nose. She would be the lesser of two evils.
