Clinton Defeated
In an election season of this magnitude when each party is going to be scrapping for every vote it would make sense to select the nominee and get them out of the campaign trail as soon as possible, right? Well not if you’re a part of the DNC. Clinton who is behind and according to most correspondents defeated has vowed to continue the fight through to the convention. Recently, she has been stumping around southern Florida “pressing her case for including delegates from Florida and Michigan in the final delegate tally.” At this point according to this article in the New York Times, despite both candidates needing super delegates to put them over the top Clinton’s chances are fading rapidly. Although reports have shown that Barack has done very well in Florida voters there still have many reservations against him, this might in fact work to Hilary’s advantage. According to this article, also from the New York Times, many Florida Jews have reservations mostly because Barack’s limited voting record when it comes to the rights of Israel. What this tells me is that Barack does not necessarily have this election in the bag, being a relatively newcomer to the governmental scene is not invoking a lot of confidence in many the democratic voters out there. What’s left?
