1. I felt much the same. To me Clinton represented The Establishment and politics as usual.
I had originally decided to support Edwards just before he suspended his campaign. To me, Clinton just represented the past and to tell the truth I did not want finger-wagging Bill anywhere near a Democratic White House. After Wisconsin, Clinton's evident willingness to do or say anything in an attempt to destroy Obama became a very major turn-off to me, particularly her comment about how she and McCain were qualified to be Commander if Chief, but all Obama had was a speech. That was really it for me. You are right, if she is willing to take her battle to the convention floor with just a couple of months until the GE, the Democratic Party will be hurt.
