And The Big Question is...

The big question for Democrats is whether Senators Clinton and Obama, whose camps don’t like each other, can conduct themselves in the long slog ahead in a way that does not undermine the party’s ability to win in November.

It’s not yet clear that they can.

The the reason it's a question.

Mrs. Clinton fired the first divisive shots of this campaign

The reason she did it:

There are other risks Mrs. Clinton faces going forward. She is not a natural politician, and Mr. Obama is. She does not have a gift for public speaking. He does. And there are legions of Democratic officeholders, former officeholders and party officials who have something less than a rosy view of Bill Clinton’s presidency and its aftermath. They aren’t interested in a restoration.
