Okay, who is in charge of this here Democratic Primary?
I voted for Hillary here in Ohio, but why hasn't somebody pulled the plug on Hillary? Is it the DNC? Howard Dean? I think I have finally heard enough!

1. I think it's a fight between HRC and Dr. Dean
She wanted him replaced as party chairman, and he may feel intimidated by her
and uncomfortable telling her to get out of the race. I can see the two of them
just staring each other down in some smoke-filled room ...

5. never confuse being polite with weakness.
the doctor is polite.
hillary is rude.
the doctor is smart
hillary is a concrete thinker, seeking one goal.
the doctor sees the big picture.
hillary demands (and gets) an attack approach that pisses everyone off.

2. the DNC is a spineless, fund raising machine
and after Obama has raised money from more than a million individual donors they are seeing that they are not needed anymore. The people are ready to take this party back.

3. Will Pelosi now tell the SDs they are no longer "frozen"?
It was about a week ago that she said the two candidates should stop bickering and the SDs should hold tight. In light of her message today that the so-called Dream Ticket is impossible, does anyone think she will take the next stop and let the SDs shift allegiance?

6. It's not the DNC's job to decide who can run.
Hillary Clinton is the the only person who can pull the plug on her campaign. If you want her to quit, you (an avowed supporter) should write to her campaign.
