150. Hillary will NOT stop
until the party is decimated. Although I still support Obama (and think he is the better candidate), I think he should consider dropping out now for the sake of the party and accepting Clinton's offer for VP.

"70% of Clinton supporters say they will not vote for Obama.
55% of Obama supporters claim they will not vote for Hillary."

If these are the facts they certainly aren't pretty and we certainly cannot expect a miraculous recovery of the spurned Clinton supporters to Obama's side should he win the nomination. This is simply unrealistic and it sets ourselves up for a huge loss come the big election.

WE CANNOT AFFORD A MCCAIN PRESIDENCY. The defeat of McCain in the GE is more important than having "your candidate" (who, by the way, only SLIGHTLY differentiates themselves from the other) win in the primary, IMO.
