Obama Vs Clinton, what impact for DNC?

Obama and Clinton, two leading presidential Democratic candidates for the White House have assailed each other with vituperative remarks bordering on allegations of inexperience and plagiarism. It is saddening to see these two candidates, touted as the future of the Democratic party engaging in mudslinging to the detriment of the party and the well being of the nation.

Clinton and Obama have very admirable policies to aid the downtrodden in the society, one of them being a universal health care. Unfortunately, their divisiveness has led to cracks in the Democratic party, with party members forming alliance towards each other based on race. The race is still a dead heat, with Obama commanding a slight edge over Clinton with the number of Delegates. Unfortunately, the prospect of capturing the 2024 delegates (http://www.cnn.com/POLITICS/ is realistically impossible for both candidates. By the time the delegates must have finished choosing their own candidate in the later months, by then, the republican front runner, John Mccain, most likely would have gotten a head start in his campaign for the election in November, 2008. Once again, we the masses might be the loser.

Almost everybody in the Country knows that the health care system is in doldrums, as such, the idea of instituting a universal health care is commendable for most people. Unfortunately, that may not be a reality, if John McCain is elected, out of bickering by these two seemingly desperate candidates. And the future for this country would be dimmed by the prolonged war in Iraq, while neglecting the economy.

So, Clinton and Obama, knock off your boxing gloves and approach politics with a degree of maturity. Particularly to Hilary Clinton, politics is not a do or die affair. If you cant win it, oh well, then it is not your turn. For the sake of the future of the Democratic party, one candidate should step down, or at best, engage in civility in their debate and campaign.


Remember, a house divided against itself cannot stand. Posterity will judge you harshly if John Mccain is elected, because both of you were not united in the first place to stem the ascendancy of a Republican in the White House.

As they say, a word is enough for the wise ... Need I say more?
