I Have High Regard For Clinton Voters & I’m Ready For Whatever Is The Next Step

With two more primaries completed, I want to restate my view that I’ll support the nominee of the Democratic Party.

People who have voted for either Hillary Clinton or Barack Obama are good people.  

I also support moving on to the next step—Whatever that next step may be.

If it is a battle to the convention, that is fine.

I’m not afraid of democracy and of people voting.

I also feel though that if Hillary Clinton is unable to win a majority of delegates, she may then wish to consider quitting the race.

Senator Clinton and Barack Obama should hold a joint press conference and pledge support for the ultimate nominee. This is the bottom line.    

I’m for Barack Obama for President.

I feel the gas tax issue is an example of why Senator Obama is the better candidate.

Senator Clinton has exploited people’s legitimate fear over the price of gas instead of offering an honest discussion of the issue. 

Senator Obama has told the more difficult truth on the gas tax.  

Still, she is much better than John McCain.

Again—I have regard for all Democratic primary voters, I am ready for whatever the process brings, and I support the candidate who I believe will be the next President—Barack Obama.

  1. Well, I would have said before the results tonight that there is no way Obama could ever win against McCain. I still think that is true because a lot of Republicans crossed (according to exit polls) to vote for him, which they are not going to do in the GE. But maybe he can win if he’s the nominee. I never thought George Bush would become president or get re-elected, so clearly I should quit my job as a political scientist (kidding–I work in food service).

  2. Lola—It’s going to work out in the end if we all stay cool. And you were right enough that George Bush would never be elected President. Its just that the Supreme Court had different ideas.

    Thanks for the comment and please visit the blog again.

  3. The supreme court had no say in the second round where he won hands down, we live in a country of stupid fucks.

  4. If someone steals $1000 and invests it and makes $10,000, has he come by that $10,000 honestly?

    Both his wins were ill-gotten.
