2. I think that Hillary & Obama will/could be the impetus for

a rally within the now-disinterested republican ranks.

Right now they are wandering and have no candidate, but remember... these folks vote AGAINST...more than they vote FOR a candidate of their own.

That's why all the bloody-shirt issues have to be used again and again.

Before Clinton ran against Poppy, probably 99% of republicans did not even know who she was..and those who did know..did not give a hoot.

Her demonization was calculated to stop her in her tracks, should she aim higher later on.

and the racist right wingers will never vote for Obama, but if he's the candidate, they will go to the polls to vote against him..
