Say what you will about the republicans
Advertisements [?]
but they rally around their candidate. Most of them who were complaining about McCain will now support him. Other repubs aren't slaying him in the press or speaking ill of him. I'm utterly disheartened by supporters of both Obama and Clinton who vow not to vote in the GE if their candidate doesn't get the nom. It is attitudes like this that have kept the repubs in the white house for so long. There is a huge problem when there have been only two democratic presidents in the 70s and the 90s.

What I am saying, as a non-American, is cut the shit--both sides. There is more to worry about than who gets the nomination. You have the Supreme Court and the opinion of the world to think about. Seriously. I like Obama but Hillary is better than any republican-so is Obama. All of you who say "I'll stay home if xxx gets the nom" use your brain and not your heart. If Roe v. Wade isn't important to you--stay home. If controlling the direction of the judicial branch of your country isn't important to you--stay home. But don't bitch or complain if the repubs stack the bench with conservative judges. Take joy in the fact that--you stayed home.
