Clinton at Democratic Convention

News reports state Hillary Clinton will have her name placed with Obama for a vote by the delegates for the nomination. Although Obama has enough delegates pledged to him to win, how solid is the commitment to him? Ex-President Bill Clinton undoubtedly wields influence as the only Democrat to serve 2 full terms as President since FDR. Obama is only 47,has been elected only once,as Senator. My feeling is if he loses this election, he can reasonably expect to be around for 5 or more elections. McCain, in contrast, is 72. This roll of the dice is his last chance.If he loses, he will almost certainly not get another nomination. McCain is old enough to be Obama's father.McCain has been in Congress since 1983, giving him 25 yrs. experience.McCain was flying combat missions in Vietnam in the mid-sixties as a Navy pilot, while in the same time frame Obama was probably riding his bicycle,playing tag, and doing all the things a boy of 6 or 7 does. Obama must realize middle-class Americans are struggling in an economic uncertainty, yet I don't see him addressing it. Most Americans are worse off than 4 yrs. ago,myself included.Historically, that gives the advantage to the out of power party,in this case Democrats. I believe the candidate that can convince the electorate he will address the uncertain economy with competant action will emerge the winner.
