I have not heard any Obama supporter say that Clinton is unelectable even though we are all aware that her negatives are so high that she is branded a polarizer. But there is a reason why Hillary are persistently asked on why she says that Obama is not electable. And then her campaign surrogates go on a limb and say that Obama cannot get the White votes.

You are an intelligent person. You tell me what all this means. Isn't Hillary getting those votes by keeping the race issue alive? And then to say that Obama is getting 90% of the Black votes; that Obama would not be where he is if he was not African-American is certainly a hit to us voters who are voting and supporting him.

There is a group of supers out there who no matter what will throw their support behind Obama. It is just a matter of timing I believe. And now Hillary's tactics will force them to do so soon. My basis for believing Claire McCaskill on this is that even though Obama has lost to Hillary in OH and PA, he has gained more supers than Hillary since then What is even worse, those who had pledged their support for Hillary are also switching.
