Yup. If I'm not mistaken, you were a Clinton supporter, correct? I'm glad to see things (very slowly) winding down, though I wish the process would speed up a bit. Like you said, I hope more superdelegates start to follow Richardson's lead, because they're the only ones with the power to put an end to this before June at the earliest.
I'm looking forward to being on the same side as Clinton supporters again. I've been extremely disappointed by her over the past 6 weeks or so, but for all her imperfections she's still certainly better than John McCain, or Mitt Romney, or Rudy Giuliani. I may not want her to be the next president, but I do want her as a contributing political voice in this country. And, really, I do have a certain sympathy for her, because I think a big reason she's fighting so hard is because she knows this is the only chance she's got at the presidency. If she's
lucky, she might still have 2012 as an option. Still, it's time to put this primary campaign to rest and get on with the general election.
