This election is about who has the best chance to win. It is about electability. I am not going some throwaway protest vote. I want a candidate who can deliver the White House and sign Democratic legislation into law.
Clinton is the best candidate to do that.
Furthermore, you are completely out of touch with reality of you don't think Clinton would be a 180 degree change from Bush. You would have to be as crazy as a Nadarite. Healthcare, a womens right to choose, fiscal responsibility, the environment, diplomacy, on and on Clinton is 180 degrees from Bush.
I am sick of unrealistic starry eyed dreamers who pretend it doesn't matter who we nominate, that if their candidate wins the world changes overnight and we all have a Coke and a smile together. It isn't that easy. The Republicans are not goig to go away without a bloddy knock down drag out fight.
