If the DNC nominating system really bothered her, the experienced "ready to lead from Day One" candidate would have known what to do and how to do it. And when. She'd have "gotten the job done" long before now.

What would prompt a Hillary supporter, especially a Democrat, to even consider backing McCain? Revenge? That's not a good enough answer.

Apart from the furor the RFK comment provoked, Clinton's argument is wrong, historically and politically. Democratic presidential primaries never really last this long. This race is unprecedented.

If the Dems ran primaries on a winner-take-all basis like they once did, like the electoral vote is handed out in the general election, Clinton would have already won the nomination with over 2,000 delegates.

One might have thought that the Wright scandal would have extinguished Obama's rumored connection to Islam. Instead, it has only strengthened the spurious claims about his faith.

It's time for uncommitted superdelegates to stop their dithering, hop off the fence and officially bring this nominating process to an end. Hillary has earned the right to stay in the race until the bitter end. So it's up to the superdelegates to accelerate the bitter end. And it's up to us to pressure them to do exactly that.

My endorsement of Obama will not be welcome news to my friends and family at the Clinton campaign. They are the best practitioners of the old politics, so they will no doubt call me a traitor, an opportunist and a hypocrite.
