OK, follow my logic.  Before you do that, accept this sentence as though it were fact.

All politics is personal. 

If this is true, then Sen. Ted Kennedy, Sen. John Kerry, Sen. Claire McCaskill, and all of the other legislative and celebrity endorsers must really not like Sen. Hillary Clinton.    To me, it seems that this side of the party wants Hill to lose–I mean REALLY wants her to lose.  If Sen. Obama does win, I’d venture to say that he wouldn’t even ask her, or her husband to stump for him in the general election.  Not to say that Pres. Clinton would.  He seems to have a long memory to me.   I think that’s the plan though–move the party to new blood and hope, AND isolate the Clintons at the same time.

This sounds like a great plan–if Sen. Obama wins.

If Hillary wins the general election, whoa, Mama!  Think about all of the mea culpas!  Sen. Kennedy and his clan, Sen. Kerry, Oprah, and everyone else on the Obama bandwagon will have to make nice with the Democratic nominee and junior Senator from New York.

Here’s where it gets interesting…

Will they?  Will they go for the party over all, or will they leave Hillary out to dry?  I can’t put my finger on it, but I think that the celebs and Sens. will keep their distance if Hillary wins.  I think that Sen. Obama would graciously stump for her.  One, he doesn’t seem petty, and two, he has a long career and another presidential shot ahead of him.

What do you as Dems and Indys think about this scenario?
