I wanted to respond, briefly, to the post about "How Obama makes us competitive everywhere." As the primary season winds to a close, the Democratic Party is left with a choice between two historic candidates, with barely a fraction of a percentage of the 4,000 pledged delegates awarded separating them. As our Party prepares to move into a general election campaign against John McCain, it becomes clear that the choice our Party must make is between more than just a candidate with more popular votes (a sign of broad support) and a candidate with more pledged delegates (an advantage won in red-state caucuses - a testament to the campaign's organizing prowess). The choice is between an experienced, tested candidate who will beat John McCain and usher in a new progressive era for this country and a candidate who could beat John McCain to fulfill promises of change.
