Democratic Party Rallies Around Obama
In a few short days since clinching the nomination, the Democratic Party is quickly rallying around Senator Barack Obama (D-Illinois).
On Saturday afternoon, Senator Hillary Clinton (D-New York) endorsed her former primary opponent in a beautifully-written and masterfully-delivered speech at the National Building Museum in Washington, D.C.
It was a speech for the ages as Senator Clinton touched upon the many themes of her campaign and that, although she did not capture the nomination, the glass ceiling has “18 million cracks in it” — a reference to the number of primary votes the junior senator from New York received.
Democrats are uniting behind Senator Obama while Senator John McCain (R-Arizona) struggles to solidify the Republican base and keep his distance from an unpopular president, a Party unfit to govern that Americans are fleeing from in droves and whose platform he will run on in November — simultaneously.
