Seven years ago today, then-Democratic presidential candidate, Sen. Barack Obama (D-Ill.) and former Democratic presidential candidate, Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton (D-N.Y) joined together after a grueling Democratic primary battle to make the case for Democratic Party unity once and for all, and to make the case at the time to defeat then Republican presidential candidate John McCain (R-Ariz.). The case was made: A Democratic president had to be elected president in 2008 or else the future was probably going to be at risk.
The primary battle at the time between Obama and Clinton after the Unity, N.H. Then-Sen. Clinton made a powerful case, that "In the end, Senator McCain and President Bush are like two sides of the same coin and it doesn't amount to a whole lot of change".
Imagine what a McCain-Palin presidency would have looked like, imagine the U.S. going to every conflict in the world and fighting these wars over and over. Imagine what a McCain-Palin presidency would have done regarding the health care crisis, the recession, the jobs issue, corporate welfare, and the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan, and important social issues.
