Bad? Brilliant?

It appears to me that Democrats now face a real possibility of the GOP pulling off a victory in November. The DNC's failure to set clear guidelines for candidates' conduct in the race for presidential Nominee where race and gender would be of particular focus could be tantamount to dereliction of duties. Knowing the Clintons and their burning desire to re-enter the white house, the subject of race should have been fully aired and rules established. Barak Obama presented a serious challenge for the Republicans. Here is a man who was not 'soiled' by the perceived average African American environmental factors and therefore have national appeal and quite above the usual racial frays. DNC, 'If you can't hold the Party together, you goin lose' that was a quote from a party member of another jurisdiction whose quote proved prophetic after similar divisive conduct by party contenders. I will not revile the Clintons but give thought to this. Bill Clinton 's Administration did things that were not achieved as far back as fifty years prior. Yet they lost to George Bush not once but twice. Democrats are more open minded and should be treated with care. You have allowed too much manipulation to take place under your nose and you are going to pay the penalty in November notwithstanding George Bush.There will be a serious split in the African American votes along with other voters who abhor the conduct of the Clintons.All will be left is for John McCain to distant himself from Bush, name CONDELEEZA RICE as his running mate and the rest will be history, as easy as cheese. Both Clinton and Obama are damaged goods right now, thanks to you DNC.It does not matter who comes out on top now.
Good luck, you will need it!

I think that If Mc Cain was to pick Condeleeza Rice, As his running mate it would lead to an easy victory for the republicans in Nov. if he is running against Obama. and would make it a tight race even with Clinton but I do believe Clinton would be the next President.

you overlook an major problem.... the war.
I have been to rally's twice. Of all the issues, what gets the greatest cheers... ending the war.
In my phone calls... the economy is bad.... but people are blaming the war for it.... it's not the economy, it's the war.
McCain will not win with his current stance.
He has no chance againist either of our people unless we allow the media to swift boat.
I cannot believe anyone in their right mind would vote for anyone with Rice on their ticket.OMG.
peace,
