An important leadership test for Barack Obama is whether he can "manage" Hillary Clinton, Bill Clinton, the herd of superdelegates and the Democratic Convention. This will consist in his deftness of style and wisdom about timing in inviting her onto the ticket as VP, handling her acceptance (if she does), or convincing her voters to stay with him after she declines (if she does.).
Most of all, it is a test of whether Barack can stave off the August food fight that Rush Limbaugh and the other media are salivating over. I predict Obama will succeed in "managing" both the party and the Clintons, no insignificant feat by any measure. We'll see.
