This year's coming presidential election is anything but ordinary. There are candidates who are attempting to "reshape" politics into what they believe is correct and there are those who just want government to get stuff done and get it right the first time.
The Democrats, Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama are in a continual battle of voter tugrope, further dividing an already fractured yet somewhat unified Democratic Party. On the other hand, you have John McCain: the presumed (but let's face it, "the") Republican nominee for President of the United States of America. While the Left is hard at work trying to galvanize its members behind a single candidate in a two-person race, those of the competitor, Hillary Clinton, are feeling left out. And if you ask me, they are. The Democratic Party, with its figureheads Nancy Pelosi and Ted Kennedy are pleading with the superdelegates and voters to support Obama even though Clinton is ahead in the popular vote. They just seem to think that Obama is the better candidate. And maybe he is, but all I know is that when you are a leader and want your entire constituency to do what you say even though half of it doesn't want to, you end up hurting yourself.
But I digress.

You are factually wrong Ben. Hillary is not ahead of Barack in the popular vote. I know you are just following Rush's orders.
My mistake. I meant "was." Not "is." I don't listen to Rush Limbaugh. I don't have a good radio.
