OK, let me take a deep breath
You argued caucuses were not democratic
You argued there was vote-rigging in Nevada (forget the lawsuit)
You argued that Americans weren't yet letting their voices be heard when BO swept SC two to one
You sent a memo downplaying the difficulties independents faced in voting in CA, as though you really cared about getting the vote count right
For whatever reason, the BO camp complained about voting irregularities in the state of LA
3 ballot boxes found in the home of a NM supporter during a close count
I heard you say, "I'm not here to watch the Republicans take it away from us" and probably believed you (the polls of her against McCain should have been more than enough)
NOW the superdelegates are more democratic?! The people you call next to a page of favors owed. Next to calls of "We'll remember you later"? (See Newsweek)
Clinton is her own Ralph Nader. We need no spoiler. You think that, based on principle, on the issues, people are going to find out that Clinton is the second worst choice and vote for her? Have we forgotten Kerry?
Don't you realize that now, each race where Dems lose by a small margin...will suddenly come with a reason?
Now, I do believe, that you can very well win this, because of superdelegates and your fabulous ability, as an establishment candidate, to get superdelegates to vote against their own rationality. But it will come at a cost
-Dems will slowly lose the black vote
-Dems will lose the youth vote, a generation of voters (I read in US News, that people who vote thrice for a prez candidate will drift to that party. Which makes 08 even more vital
-you will lose independents, who favored Dem almost 2 to 1 in 06. As will moderate dems and even dems who are so ideological that they can be mistaken for socialists (like me)
-you will convince the millions of brainwashed, Limbaugh'loving Repubs to vote, just as gay marriage bans galvanized evangelicals, only worse
-you will have wasted the pain we faced for eight, long years that convinced scores of moderate republicans, independents, and Reagan Democrats to join us and build a new Democratic majority
Furthermore, how can you argue that you're more electable when you're losing against someone you led, more than two-to-one, two months ago!
