8. Some people who are supporting Hillary -- from the economic elite --
Edited on Tue Dec-18-07 09:57 AM by IndyOp
are possibly counting on Hillary's failure to win in order to destroy Dean's 50-State Strategy --- which I kind of think of as "democracy".

Some individuals out there are greatly afraid of a government of, by, and for the people. These sorts have been around since the founding of the nation and with our current system of campaign finance they wield a lot of power.

If they support Hillary then there will be a "real race" and the Republican candidate will likely win -- and they will get their permanent Republican majority.

If Hillary is elected we will have to work our asses off to make sure the down-ticket Dems win.
