Frightened Democrats Scurry to 'Wrap It Up'

The Democrats are running scared. The big news today in Washington is that the big wigs in the Party fear that the great divide created by the Hillary-Obama feud is playing into the hands of McCain and may 'cost them the White House,' as one network put it.

First of all, the assumption that the White House is the Democrats' to lose is quite a giant leap into fantasy land. There have never been any guarantees especially as the race has progressed, highlighting the multiple weaknesses of the two potential nominees.

Further, John McCain has already made significant inroads into the Democratic Party's voter base. He will get millions of Democratic votes no matter who the nominee of the Party may be.

The most ominous prospect, however, is that McCain will more than double his support among Dems if either Hillary or Obama is forced out of the race. So deep and scathing have been the wounds created by the feud that supporters of either candidate state that if their 'guy' loses the nomination they will vote for McCain rather than support their Party's nominee.

This has got to have the Party big wigs bent over a toilet bowl somewhere.

Thus, the big wigs emerged today to say that 'it's time to wrap it up.' No longer do they want this divisive campaign to continue. They want 'Party unity.'

Just exactly how they wish to accomplish this is the million dollar question.

Hillary responded by stating there was no way she was pulling out of the race. And why should she? She is headed toward a big win in Pennsylvania in all likelihood, and the Obama bandwagon has lost at least one of its wheels in recent weeks. He may not win any other major primary.

The mainstream media's spin on this, of course, is that 'there is no way Hillary can win when one looks at the numbers.' What they fail to tell you is that in the present scenario there is no way Obama can win when one looks at the numbers, either.

Though one candidate may well have more delegates than the other, neither will have enough to declare victory.

Thus, either the 'Super-delegates' will be forced to choose the candidate--a scenario that will surely split the Party even further--or the fight will be taken to the floor of the Democratic National Convention.

Neither option holds a positive outcome.
