I don't care if she won West Virginia by a huge margin. I don't care if she thinks that she's still in this race. I don't care if she thinks that she can somehow convince the superdelegates to go back to supporting her. Hillary Clinton needs to accept that it is over for her. She campaigned hard and made this a really close race for a long, long time. Too long in fact, and part of me respects her for that. But the math just isn't there for her. There is no honest, respectful way for her to pull out a win at this point. Unless they somehow link Obama to 9/11, those superdelegates are going to stay right where they are.
I know I'm an Obama supporter and that this makes me very much biased, but this is my opinion and I'm sticking to it. All she's doing is hurting the party now. Obama isn't perfect by any means, and everything she does from here on out just helps to point out his flaws. She needs to accept that she isn't going to win and do whats best for the party. I'm not going to claim to be a political expert either. I've never cared about politics or elections before now, so this is all very new to me. But it is rather obvious to me that Hillary Clinton is being selfish and delusional. Throw in the towel. I'll like you a little bit more if you do. Besides, there is a good chance you are going to get the nod as Vice President.

But if, as many speculate, Hillary would prefer McCain to Obama, then she's doing a very rational thing in hurting him as much as she can before dropping out.
And if that's true, then I guess she's doing what she feels is right of course. But if that's the case, she is still hurting her party.
I find it difficult to believe that she would support McCain over Obama. She and Obama have very similar ideas on many issues, and McCain would be the exact opposite on some of these issues too. For example, the withdrawal of our troops from Iraq.
Judging by her interview with Wolf the Blitzkrieg, she sounded very resigned. Oh, and John Edwards backing Barack today will just about seal this up, if all of his pledged delegates agree to support Barack as well.
Edwards is backing Barack?! That's badass!
