Enough already

The back and forth Democratic primary between Sen. Barack Obama and Sen. Hillary Clinton is one of the closest in the 200-year history of the process. At this rate, one day after Hillary won the Pennsylvania primary by a 10 percent margin, neither candidate can reach the 2,025-delegate platform with pledged delegates, so they'll be forced to use the superdelegates to decide the nominee. This can't happen. Democratic National Committee Chairman Howard Dean needs to figure out a way to end this seemingly never-ending battle before the Democratic National Convention in Denver in August. Otherwise, the former Vermont governor will have a split party and then this country will have yet another Republican president, more tax breaks for the richest Americans, 5 dollar gasoline, 5 dollars for a gallon of milk and etc. etc. etc. It's ridiculous. After having one of the worst presidents ever (and yes, it's partly my fault, I voted for him twice), this country needs to move in a different direction, and the Democrats, with this extended brouhaha called primary season, are inching ever so closer to screwing it up. Message to Dems: Get your act together, enough of this primary nonsense, get some party unity so you can beat John McCain in November.
