Democrats prepare to self-destruct

A new Gallup poll shows that 28% of Hillary Clinton's backers would vote for John McCain if Barack Obama gets the Democratic nomination, whereas 19% of Obama's supporters would vote for McCain if Hillary gets the nomination.

In spite of two consecutive Republican presidential terms, a deteriorating economy, George W. Bush's unpopularity and the bad odor that lingers over the Republican brand in the nostrils of the electorate, John McCain is in an excellent position to win this November. His appeal- unique among this year's Republican candidates- to Democrats and independents is part of it. But then, there's also the circular firing squad the Democrats seem to be assembling.
