Polarization

You need no greater evidence of the deep polarization of the Democratic party than this simple fact: not one single person who voted for Hillary in a primary also cast a primary vote for Obama. The overlap is literally zero. Clearly, with this kind of division, the Democratic Party is doomed in November.

I agree, particularly when you compare this with the last election cycle: In 2004, everyone who voted for Nader also voted for Bush. Not only that, a bunch of people who didn't vote for Bush at all ended up voting for Bush! Clearly the dems have no chance.
