"We had a lotta bad blood."

As the latest primary comes to an end the one good thing that comes to mind is the cleansing of the Democratic party.

It reminds me of a line from "The Godfather."

"We had a lotta bad blood."

When Michael Corleone took over the family business he stepped over his older brother Fredo and began to take the family in a different direction. Fredo felt he was entitled to be the next Godfather. When Michael took over he cleared up the bad blood.

I think the party had a lotta bad blood. Obama is Michael and he has just stepped over Hillary. While the Clintons did their share of good for the Democratic party, they also did their share of harm.

Several Members of Congress have numerous horror stories about the tactics and attitudes of the Clintons. Until Obama, the Clintons were the only game in town. While the party has a lot of mending to do, ultimately this will be helpful for the long term success of the Democratic party. This will secure a large youth vote along with Independents, which will assist in increasing the Democratic majority in the Congress.

The time has come - and some would say long overdue - for the Democratic party to turn the page on the Clinton era. Obama is now the head of the family business.
