I want a candidate the conservatives hate. I really do. Because I hate their politics, so if they hate my candidate, I know she is doing something right.

And if Obama gets the nomination, but doesn't have the popular support in the swing states - only has the popular support in states that don't matter because when the state is going to be for the Republican candidate when it gets to the actual election, I am worried.

Because Democrats will cut off their nose to spite their face, the last two elections have proven that for me. Third party candidates, not voting at all - these are the things that can lose elections.

And mythicwarrior is not the only person I hear saying what he says.
