I see the Democrats, however, hard-charging in the direction of squandering this golden opportunity with one candidate perceived as a strident unlikeable woman and the other candidate perceived as a black moslem.
Prejudices are hard to overcome, however may prejudiced people are staunch right wing and may stay home rather than vote for McCain, because McCain has crossed the line too many times.
I see this as an opportunity to explore both a black and a female candidate and taste the true waters of this country. One that may not come again for some time if not taken.
It also is a great opportunity to get the both the democratic social message across while McCain sits in the background, as both Barak and Hillary discuss their programs to attract voters, and the democratic foreign policy message as Barak and Hillary trade 3am comments.
The republican convention will be ho-hum. The democratic convention will be exciting. Weaknesses in any candidate can be filled by VP the choice, and it will be interesting to see where this goes.
1. Using the mechanism of the Super Delegate process,...
Most of the superdelegates will be interested in their own election - they are predominantly people running for office - and in who will be best able to help them, rather than toe a party line. Their primary concern will thus be electablity.
Enjoy.
