According to a survey recently done by CNN it seems that Democrats on either side of the Clinton v. Obama struggle are getting fed up. The survey reports that 16% of Clinton supporters say they will not vote in the general election if Obama gets the nomination. A similar amount of Obama supporters say they same for Clinton. CNN points out that this will greatly effect the Democrats turnout in southern states. A large majority of African-American Democrats in the south could stay at home if the threats against a Clinton nomination are true.While the Democrats fight it out between each other and create further tension between party members, the Republicans are in the shadows, for now, able to regroup the troops for the general election. More of an emphasis needs to be placed on unity when it comes to the Democrats. The longer this fights ensues the deeper the convictions of both sides will become. But the Democrats need to remember not to push or bully Clinton the wrong way. Hell hath no fury like a woman scorned.
There has been a recent outcry from Obama endorsers for Clinton to drop out of the race. I just hope they know what they are doing- she is one woman I wouldn't want to deal with in the future.
