Democrats have a long road to travel to achieve unity

I was reading a report online about Hillary Clinton's big speech today in which she enthusiastically endorsed Barak Obama and urged her supporters to get behind Obama's presidential candidacy.

According to the report I read, many present were willing to cheer Obama, others not so much: Hillary's endorsement drew some boos and the story told of two women who had worked long and hard for Hillary Clinton and felt somewhat betrayed. They seemed just about ready to pack up their political a href="http://www.luggageuniverse.com">luggage and move out of the Democratic Party.

Will Obama win in November? Does John McCain have some advantages, based on his greater experience and "war hero" reputation? We'll see.

One thing's for sure: If the Democratic Party can't rally behind Obama and show genuine unity, we'll be looking at a sort of modified "Bush III" presidency. (Strictly personal note: I was honestly hoping that former Gen. Colin Powell would be the first African-American president. But Obama works for me, too.)
