This has been asked a few times lately, but it's hard to answer given that I'm still supporting Hillary for the Democratic nominee.  I do see that the mountain is steep, so I am not ignoring the question, but rather, giving it serious thought. Before I can answer it, I need to more fully understand why I feel so strongly.

Truth is, I'm not ready to get on board with Obama if Hillary does not get the nomination.  I, too, am having a political identity crisis, wondering whether the Democratic Party is the right place for me anymore.  I have not declared that I'm voting for McCain, but I'd be lying to say I haven't seriously thought about it.  Trying to find a way down off that cliff, I am looking at all my options.  Right about now I'm wishing for a third party comprised of socially liberal/fiscally conservative (not neocon) ideals.

Let me say this:  On behalf of Hillary and her supporters I feel marginalized and bullied.  (Not at a personal level: when I've written something here I've tried not to be insulting or too inflammatory and, as a result, I've received civil replies from people who disagree with me.  But I see/read a lot and in my gut (Stephen Colbert would be proud) there is something larger going on.  

There's more...
