The democratic primary season is drawing to a close. Voting has been going on for over three months. I believe the last primary is PR on June 4. Both candidates will likely be in the race on that date, some 6 weeks from now, but I'll confidently predict that it won't go on more than a week or so beyond that. Why? SDs and party movers and shakers do NOT want this going to a contentious convention, two months from the freakin' general election. They know that if that happens John McCain will have an almost insurmountable lead. You really, really think they're going to let that happen? Slim to no chance of that. One way or another, they'll make their choice known and put either Obama or Clinton over the top, and the loser will drop out. Why? To do otherwise would destroy that person's political career. Personally, I think the nominee by the middle of June will be Obama, but as almost anything could happen, it may end up being Hillary- if Obama completely implodes, and that's not likely.
So, in two months or so, all this will be over. And man, do I look forward to that.
