Clinton and Obama COULD make this all less depressing....
If they would get into a competition now as to who will incorporate more of Edwards', Kucinich's, and Richardsons' views on foreign policy, healthcare, trade and workers' rights.

Neither of them would have anything to lose and the enthusiasm for the race would become that much greater.

Give it a shot. And look at it this way:

Whoever gets the votes of those who would have voted Edwards, Richardson and Kucinich will end up getting the nomination, so embracing at least some of their ideas is clearly in your candidate's interest, if you back HRC or Obama.

2. Hillary has a history and life's work with the vulnerable in this country.
Behind the scenes she had worked on the issues of children, women, and the working poor. I'll keep supporting her on those issues alone.

3. They could, but they won't. That's not what they're being paid to do. (NT)
