Obama supporters: you need Edwards and Clinton fans

Advertisements [?]

If Obama wins the nomination, he will need the other 60-65% of the Democratic party that hasn't been supporting him in the polls.

The irrational venom that is directed at Clinton, and to a lesser extent, Edwards, is not going to help you solidify the support you may need later on. People have very long memories in politics.

It's great that Barack seemingly has the appeal to reach independents and moderate Republicans.

But, while they may be of great help, they won't be the ones electing him.

The Democratic base will.
