Neither Clinton nor Obama is destroying the Democratic party or anything else

[ruggerson]

They're both good Democrats competing in a hard fought campaign to win this nomination.

Both sides have occasionally hit slightly below the belt, which is to be expected.

Both sides have made gaffes, and the other team has capitalized on them. Which is to be expected also.

It's called a primary.

Neither campaign has the moral highground here. Despite the hyperbolic attempts by some here to characterize it otherwise, this is not a choice between good and evil.

It's a choice between two able, well intentioned Democrats.

It'll all be over in a couple of weeks and we can get back to regularly scheduled programming.

5. That depends on if either of them tries to wins the nomination while losing the popular vote.

Yes, I know the excuses- Florida, Michigan, Caucuses. Whatever. If the candidate can't win without getting the majority of the superdelegates votes, they shouldn't win. Anyone who refuses to honor the voice of the people doesn't deserve the office, nor the honor of being called a "good Democrat".
