What's at stake in this election
The Democrats are so busy bickering over who is the best candidate that they might be forgetting about what's really at stake here...

Over the last few weeks, the Democrats have engaged in a heated debate about whether Senator Clinton or Senator Obama would be the better nominee, and over whether experience is more important than a message of change.
While it is a good thing to have that debate, the Democrats these days seem to be getting lost in it and forget what is really at stake in this election:

4 more years (or more) of war in Iraq
4 more years of failed economic policies
4 more years of increasing debt and deficit
4 more years of job losses to cheap-labor countries (China etc.)
a possible economic recession
4 more years of a failed heath care system
4 more years of international relations that are strained if not worse

That's what's at stake here. It's not about who is more experienced or whose message is better. It is about the fact that this country can't afford 4 more years of these failed policies. The Democrats can't afford to go into the general election campaign as divided as they are now. They'll have to unite behind one candidate eventually.
Why not start now?
