Yesterday, Senator Chris Dodd, made the statement that an agreement should be worked out after the upcoming contests in Pennsylvania, Indiana, and North Carolina between Obama and Hillary. He said it is irresponsible at this point to allow the democrats to continue to duke it out while the republicans can shift their focus to the general election.

All of this squabbling on the Democratic side is pushing many democrats to opt out of electing at all or switching their representation to John McCain.

Chris Dodd is concluding that it is obvious that Obama will be the democratic presidential nominee, however, Hillary refuses to quit even though she is trailing Obama. Dodd is encouraging the democratic party leaders to bring this to a conclusion and make their choice.

"We've got five more months to go before the Democratic convention at the end of August and, candidly, we cannot go five more months with the kind of daily sniping that's going on and have a candidate emerge in the convention."

Nancy Pelosi is even being criticized for suggesting that the Democratic party super-delegates should not overturn the pledged outcome at the party's convention in August and that the candidate who finished the primary round with the pledged-delegate lead should be awarded the Democratic nomination by the super-delegates. That would be Obama who is leading by a insurmountable 171.

Are we going to be forced to watch these two duke it out for the next five months or will the Democratic party put this frivolous arguing to an end?
