The Democratic showdown nightmare

You want to talk scary political scenarios?

Imagine Hillary Clinton does anything short of winning three stunning and overwhelming primary victories in Ohio, Texas and Pennsylvania.

If she doesn't blow out Barack Obama in these final big states in which she is favored, the Democratic National Convention this summer is going to be one ugly affair.

In racial and gender terms normally reserved for use by Democrats, it will be the establishment white woman vs. the young black outsider.

And won't that be just fitting given the racial and group identity politics practiced so crudely by the Democrats since 1972, when the McGovern Bolsheviks took control of the party and never let go.

Think about it.

The Democrats have made their bed, and now they have to sleep in it.

(Column continues below)

They decided it was to their advantage to reinvent America as a society of classes and oppressed groups rather than one in which individuals are sovereign and endowed by their Creator with certain inalienable rights.

That's what they wanted. That's what they got.

And while some are viewing the contest between Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton as an opportunity to re-energize and revive the coalition, enfranchise new voters and bring back excitement to politics, this potential Democratic showdown nightmare from hell could also result in a devastating schism that could rip the party apart.

I don't mind telling you, I'm looking forward to that spectacle.

It's what a bunch of socialist race-baiters and phony feminists deserve.

Watch what happens if Barack Obama is denied the nomination after this most impressive showing against the old guard of the Democratic Party establishment and a candidate who has presumed herself to have inherited the nomination in royal fashion.

Likewise, watch the bitterness and vengeful rage that overcomes Hillary and her radical feminista supporters if she is somehow deprived of the prize.

Either way, there's going to be blood on the hot streets of Denver come August.

I don't see these two patching things up and making merry when this is over. I don't see Obama playing second fiddle to Hillary, and I don't see Hillary playing second banana to "the second black president." It's just not in the cards. It's not realistic.

They may agree on just about everything, but they don't agree on who should be in charge.

That's their fundamental political disagreement, and it is an insurmountable one.

We could see the ugliest racial politics in America since George Wallace in 1968. It won't come from Republicans. It won't come from "conservatives." It won't come from the South. It won't come from the vast right wing conspiracy. It will be coming from that enlightened, sophisticated Yale Law grad who serves as junior senator from New York.

And watch the reaction to that from a core constituency of the Democratic Party – the black vote that has been taken for granted for so long. Do you think those who have waited so long for a viable black presidential candidate are going to take it lying down when the nomination is literally stolen from him because of the votes of unelected super-delegates?

I for one would not want to have to explain that in Denver.

While the Democratic Party might appear to be sitting pretty with all the enthusiasm over a real horse race, this campaign has all the potential to destroy its base, to create internal strife, to rip asunder this blundering coalition of alleged victims, the poor and downtrodden.

I can't wait.

No party could deserve it more.
