GOP likely to wrap up their nominating phase in early Spring, Dems going all the way to convention

Edited on Wed Jan-30-08 07:20 AM by book_worm

is my prediction. It will be an interesting and potentially fractuous convention and the fight will probably come down to whether we seat Florida and Michigan delegations and how those delegates will be allocated. For lets be clear if Florida and Michigan delegates are seated at the convention after all the candidates had previously pledged not to campaign in the states and agreed to abide by DNC ruling that will leave a sour taste in many supporters of Obama and Edwards who obeyed the rules as opposed to the one candidate who didn't.

Can the Dems then unite behind a nominee and take on McCain and win?

1. If that happens

I absolutely guarantee that Hillary will lose the general election.

There won't be any uniting behind her at that point and our party will have effectively set itself on fire.
