...the rifts her campaign has done so much to create within the party.

To paraphrase...Obama had to get black support in order to obtain the nomination and he was faced with an opponent who was reasonably well liked in the black community. The means that Obama used to obtain black support has -- as was predictable -- damaged party cohesion by exploiting racial distrust and class divisions. He was willing to gamble the structure of the party in order to advance his own personal political interests.

The race pimp is the one that needs to move to heal the divisions. I doubt he can do it but I'll be interested to see if he tries.

Um, Indie, the point was that she shouldn't talk about it any more, because it would be fanning the embers of the notion that the party still hasn't chosen a nominee.
Of course, SDs can change their minds.
Nothing's official until a roll-call vote in Denver. Or until somebody from the Clinton camp moves that Obama be unanimously acclaimed, and it passes to wild cheers from the delegates.
But in the interest of a Democratic victory in November, Hillary needs to start NOW healing the rifts her campaign has done so much to create within the party.
The jury's out on whether she will.

What's your point? That Hillary could end up with very few SDs?

I am still trying to discover the disconnect between Hillary and Obama supporters.

I would love to hear more perspective from Hillary supporters.

If you're interested, please share your opinions.

Or about how superdelegates can change their minds right into August.

Uh...actually they can. Are you looking to change the rules again?

Too bad Hillary hasn't shown much political smarts this primary season. Which is exactly why I don't think she will do what you suggest. That just makes too much sense.

We'll see... I'm expecting to be surprised.
