Obama winning the nomination over Clinton reminds me of the python that ate the alligator.
In Florida’s Everglades, a 13-foot Burmese python recently burst after it apparently tried to swallow a live, six-foot alligator whole, authorities said.



We Dems have created so much hatred during this primary that we may not be able to join forces and beat McCain in the GE.

1. Thats a cool picture, but I don't agree with you
Even if a couple hundred thousand of Hillary's supporters decide that they're ok with a conservative SCOTUS and no more Roe v Wade, and a 100 more years of way....Obama's ground game and voter registration projects will more then make up for it (Look at the Vote for Change Campaign that started today in all 50 States.)

Welcome to the new politics.

2. I think we'll be fine after a bit
There is no worse thought than John McCain 44th President of the USA.

3. Its Hillary that created all the Hate
and so it will be her and her people that need to mend the fences. Obama has floated above it (whether you believe he has done anything or not) as Reagan proved "the perception has become reality"/

Obama was the alligator all along.

6. Talk About Biting Off More Than You Can Chew
On a more serious note, if an Obama-Clinton ticket is not in the offing, and unacceptable to everyone except perhaps Clinton, does anyone now have concerns about what to "do" with Clinton, if you get my drift? Surely she has a role to play and surely it is desirable to enfold/enlist the former opponent?

8. IMO Clinton will work to get BO elected, if he fails she will immediately become the 2012 nominee.
