I bolded the part I would like you to respond to.
In the end, most of Clinton's supporters will vote for Obama, depending, in part, on what happens during the campaign. Many of us will vote for Obama regardless of what happens during the campaign.
I would still suggest, you know, since the currency of politics is, in the final anaylsis, votes - well that bringing the maximum number of votes is an important consideration.
You may feel differently.
