Reply #230: And yet, at the end of it all...

When the dust has settled, and someone finally wins the Democratic nomination, no matter who it is, I hope the loser has the grace and decency to stand up and support his/her former opponent and urges his/her supporters to follow suit.

If, by some strange configuration of planetary influences, Hillary is the nominee, I have every confidence that Obama would plead with his supporters to get out there and vote for Hillary...I don't believe he would play, nor ask his supporters to play, the "If I can't have it, nobody can" game.

By the same token, do I believe Hillary would plead with her supporters to do the same? I don't know, quite honestly. All I can hope for is that she would, and that the majority of her supporters would realize that cutting off one's nose to spite one's face is childish and dangerous.

Especially when the alternative is (IMO) a batshit crazy GWB ass-kisser.
