Admitting the Inevitable

Hillary may be the change we have been looking for.....but unfortunately an equally-talented black man is running against her with 92% of the African American vote and almost 100% of the under 35 behind him. My heart is broken that I may not see a woman in the white house in my lifetime.

What a terrible crossroads - two historic candidates, with tremendous support. I love Hillary, I met her and she is so dynamic and charismatic it is overwhelming. And yet she still has the time to look into your eyes and make you feel as if no one else in the room existed. I know in my soul she is THE ONE. Unfortunately, Mr. Obama has even more supporters. None of us are bad people, no matter what some of these gutless, faceless bloggers write. Unless Obama gets hit by a bus, he will be the nominee, no matter how many mathematical permutation hoops we jump through. Granted, the media has a lot to do with painting a picture of him as the new Messiah.

The writing is on the wall -- we must have an Obama-Clinton ticket in the fall. I don't care if they or their supporters hate each other. Lots of us have to work with people we don't like. They'll get over it, a la Kennedy and Johnson, et al. Their platforms are also identical, and just think of what our party could achieve with these strong candidates.

It's time to stop the harmful rhetoric, and focus on the real satan in the campaign, Mr. World War III himself, John "Teflon" McCain.
