Are you serious?

For all the problems Senator Hillary Rodham Clinton appears to be having holding off her rivals in Iowa and New Hampshire, she remains strong nationally, the poll found. Even after what her aides acknowledge have been two of the roughest months of her candidacy, she is viewed by Democrats as a far more electable presidential nominee than either Senator Barack Obama or John Edwards. Not only do substantially more Democratic voters judge her to be ready for the presidency than believe Mr. Obama is prepared for the job, the poll found, but more Democrats also see Mrs. Clinton rather than Mr. Obama as someone who can unite the country.

I am speechless and saddened by the sheer ineptitude of the Democrats who participate in these polls. Why is it so hard for them to see the obvious? Senator Clinton might be ready for Presidency, is a smart woman and might have the best of intentions for this country. That said, nothing from my vantage point, tells me that she will be able to do the two things that the next President MUST be able to do:
- Unite the people of this country and then inspire them to do bold things in the following areas - Energy Independence, Environment and Health Care
- Remind the World that United States is B-A-C-K and it’s willing to invest in what it has always done - Lead By Example
Senator Clinton, in my mind, will flunk the first requirement, especially in her ability to Unite and Inspire the people of this country.
