What a Race.

It's impressive how "in it" each of our candidates still are. With huge numbers for the Dems, it is truly amazing that they have kept it this tight.

I think it is large part to their different strategies. If they were playing the same way, one would have won last month. Obama focuses on the ground game, 50-states, caucuses, red states. Hillary focuses on the big states, the blue states. They have distinct advantages in the varied demographics.

Amazing that 25 million votes have been cast for these Dems, and they are separated by some 500,000. They are clearly both very "electable", viable, and strong.

I am having a hard time seeing how we can lose one of them.

I've done a great job staying away from GDP just because of the squabbling and bickering going on around here. Then I hear the supporters of each candidate saying that they will stay home if the other one is nominated. I understand tensions are high, but we have TWO great candidates that actually are pretty close on issues, but very different on style. Both will do a great job in the white house and both will have my full support in the fall if nominated. I'm glad that the race is close, because it strengthens our candidates. Whoever gets nominated will get a barrage of dirt thrown at them from the Repubs anyways, why not be prepared and seasoned (and deep fried extra crispy! :) ).

Thank you HRC and BO for your hard work. This is one vote that you have in the bank.

2. tekisui this is my opinion about the turn out

We finally have two candidates that aren't an old dried up white man running for the nominee(except for when BigDawg was in office). We have a black man and a woman and I can see why everybody is energized about it.
