23. Obama and Clinton are flawed candidates

neither of whom is likely to win in the GE. It may take a while, but I believe more Dems will also come to this realization. Edwards has to stay in for as long as it takes.

Otherwise, we're stuck with 8 years of McCain or whomever the Goopers choose.

This isn't a popularity contest, its serious business. Dems can't afford to blow this one.
