The Need For Unity

This is a startling and troubling finding from today's AP poll:

[A]bout one-third of Obama's supporters picked McCain when asked their preference in a Clinton-McCain general election matchup. Nearly three in 10 Clinton backers said they would vote for McCain over Obama.

It seems clear that most of Obama's edge in the McCain matchup is this type of simply unacceptable recalcitrance from Democratic Obama supporters, and Clinton supporters are hardly better.

I will say this bluntly - any person who claims to be a Democrat who will vote Clinton but not Obama, and vice versa, are in a cult of personality and do not deserve to be called Democrats. Such an attitude is simply disgraceful.

The Supreme Court? Iraq? Taxes? The environment? Health care? How could any Dem POSSIBLY support McCain? These are not Democrats. These are petulant, stupid members of cults of personality, for Clinton and Obama. Shame on them.
