The Indiana and North Carolina primaries loom large this week for
Hillary Clinton. Recent polls show that she is in a virtual dead heat
with
Barack Obama.
Obama's
problems with his former pastor, the Reverend Jeremiah Wright just will
not go away, as much as he would like them to. Wright continues to make
news because he wants to remain in the spotlight. Wright, at first
incensed that
Obama
finally tried to sever all ties with him over his incendiary remarks,
now is enjoying his fifteen minutes of fame by appearing on programs
such as Bill
Moyers, and making speeches at NAACP dinners. What's next...his own late night talk show?
While
all of this is going on, John McCain now has his own problems with
religious figures. One of McCain’s religious supporters, John
Hagee,
called the Roman Catholic Church “the great whore.”Another, Rod
Parsley, referred to Islam as a “false religion” that America was
called on to destroy.
Hillary, in the meantime, has made an appearance on The
O'Reilly Factor, saying she would have left
Obama's church knowing what Wright had said.
Yeah, right.
In any event, with Hillary gaining momentum among the Democrat base despite the fact that the
superdelegates are throwing their support behind
Obama, she must continue to fight on.
No
matter what happens in Tuesday's primaries, Hillary should not drop out
of the race. She must take this fight all the way to Denver, where a
brokered convention similar to the one that occurred in 1968 is certain
to turn this race into a bloodbath, which will result in the
destruction of the Democrat party.
Won't that be fun!
