Witness the last eight years. I think most Clinton supporters will vote for Obama. But some won't vote at all, and at least a few will go for McCain. It's just a question of how many are in each group. I don't think Obama should go too far in trying to woo Clinton supporters, such as putting her on the ticket, because for every Clinton supporter he would gain there is a die-hard Clinton hater he would lose. She has always had high negatives in general election polls. Macy, the electorate has shown a great capacity for self delusion. Witness the last eight years.

I think any Hillary supporter who thinks four years of McCain would be better than Obama is seriously deluded. I added you to my blogroll on Night Blind. Are you okay with that? Let me know.
