While I don't really understand this sentiment, you don't need to worry. She can't win a general election in this country, in part because a lot of people feel like you do. Hillary is the one person who can unify the Republican Party....against her.
I'm a Democrat and a big Obama supporter. In part this is because I think he would be a far better president, but also because he at least has a chance of winning in November. She - on the other hand - would have no chance.

i've seen where obama has been steadily gaining on hilary nationally in the polls...i really think that's true as well, that he could win, and she could not.

i found this:

As a result, Todd said, Clinton could end up with the most votes at the end of the evening, but the delegate count could be nearly even, with Obama winning 841 to Clinton’s 837.
“We have a split decision tonight,” Todd said.

---------------------------------------

and this:


In the Democratic races, Barack Obama led with eight in 10 black voters and Hillary Rodham Clinton led with just over half of whites. Obama’s support among four in 10 whites across 16 states was more than he had captured in earlier primary states. Clinton won six in 10 Hispanic voters. Obama led among white men, while Clinton led among white women.
Obama won in Alabama, Delaware, Georgia, and his home state of Illinois, all states where more than one-fifth of the voters were black. Clinton won in Arkansas, Massachusetts, Missouri, New York, and Oklahoma, states with fewer black voters, but she also won in Tennessee and New Jersey, both states where one-fourth of the voters were black.

Overall, Obama led among men and Clinton led among women, although her advantage among women appeared smaller than was seen in early primary states. An exception was New York, which Clinton represents in the Senate. There, Clinton was competitive among men and gained the support of four in 10 blacks. In Arizona, Obama was more competitive among Hispanics than he was nationally.

In the Republican races, John McCain led among men. He was tied with Mitt Romney among women.

Disagree completely. Whoever wins the Dem nom will have unified Democratic support, including the former Obama supporters. But, most importantly, Hillary can get votes from a bloc that Obama likely wouldn't -- namely, Republican women.

But Hilary so disgusts true Repubs who aren't real excited about McCain that they would be motivated to turn out in larger numbers than they might if it was Barack. The answer to who wins the general election may not be who votes, but who doesn't.

True Republicans always turn out in large numbers. The biggest changes occur when those who normally feel themselves disenfranchised think they have shot at effectuating their views. Even if the hard-core Republican Clinton haters turn out in mass droves, the amount of interest in the Democratic race this year will ensure a large Democratic turn out. And there's less haves than have-nots. Plus, Hillary will still pick up many moderate Republican women.
