If you repeatedly post that Obama is going to get creamed by McCain in the GE...

[Bicoastal]

...and then don't pledge to do your very best to make sure that doesn't happen when BHO DOES win the nomination...

...aren't you setting up a self-fulfilling prophecy? And isn't that kinda hypocritical?

I WILL work for whoever is the nominee, even if HRC does swing it somehow. That's right, as much as the Clintons have irked me over the last few months, I WILL phonebank and door-to-door and all that.

To do any less, and then complain about 4 more years of GOP rule--it's just crazy.

1. No more CONS in the White House

I will do what I can for HRC should she become the nominee. We can't afford 4-8 years of Rethuglicans.

But of course my hope is to work for a candidate that I strongly support and believe in: OBAMA

2. They'll come around, they're just hurt right now

I hope anyway.

6. the entire country is hurt

when we rally around the corporate media-picked front-runners

[donheld]

3. Whether it's Hillary or Barack it's gonna mean lots of work

We are going to have to really get off our asses and fight as hard as we can to get a Dem with long coat tales to the White House. We just need to vow to fight no matter which one gets the nod.

4. Yea, they can vent. It isn't easy to lose. I remember 04 and Kerry going down

it hurts and it takes time to jump back.

5. well its true!!

7. Yep, McCain in power can only happen with apathy.

9. No one asked us

I pledge to work for the nominee although Obama can't run on "unity"/post-partisanship against McCain (who has a two decade long record of bipartisan results in DC). He loses his biggest issue and won't clear the threshold security question in the minds of many voters.

10. There's not much difference between McCain and Obama

Both are economic conservatives, both are owned by corporate America. It really doesn't make a great deal of difference.

11. Horse Hockey. You know better than that.

[Mezzo]

13. The truth is, there's not much difference between Obama and Clinton

There is a lot of difference between McCain and Obama. My right to govern my own damn body for one (pretty damn big one too)

12. Some Clinton people will probably not vote for Obama, after all the character assassination.

14. Not to mention that there is NO evidence at all that McCain would "win"

two contested party primaries (something that usually drives up turnout) and the turn out for dems blows out the turn out for repubs. Not only is turnout higher for dems, in open primary states where people select which party to vote for/caucus with is determined on the spot rather than preregistration with a party, the number of independents voting for dems - particularly Obama far outpaces those going to vote repub/McCain. This will be less indicative when McCain is not still being contested (thought that was after Super Tuesday, but the weekend showed that was not yet the case, however it might be the case after last night's elections) - given that the pull to showup at a primary goes down when the party has a presumptive winner - but to date it has been indicative and the indicators look bad for the GOP and for McCain.

So while I agree with you entire post (per pygmallion overtones) - I would challenge the premise of such posts as based on air, not any "indications on the ground."
