Now it's up to Barack to win this election in his own right. But you must be fair to her supporters. Obama got 90% of the Black vote--most of those people voted for him not on the issues, but because he is Black. I am Black and I chose to support Senator Clinton on the issues. As for my vote, Obama still has some work to do to win me over. Caitlyn,

All she owed him was an endorsement so that the party would be unified, but instead she gave a passionate speech in his favor. If that speech didn't convince her supporters, then nothing else will. I think it's pretty clear that those supporters didn't really care about the issues; they just want a woman and they don't care who. John McCain certainly isn't going to do anything good for the majority of women in this country. As for experience, she said those things while she was campaigning and before Obama picked Joe Biden as his running mate. Also, all the experience in the world doesn't matter if you have bad judgement. Just look at Dick Cheney. It was clear to me that Clinton truly supports Obama.
