Hillary Clinton Should Stay In The Race.

I see no reason for Senator Hillary Clinton to drop out of the race. A majority of Democratic voters see it the same way. In several recent polls the majority of people favor her staying in the race. She will likely clean Obama's clock in West Virginia next Tuesday and in Kentucky the following week. She will get Florida and Michigan votes counted, and that is pretty much a given. Now how they will be counted and how much it ultimately helps her remains to be seen.

At any time more bad news, or press could come out on Obama, which could make for a really good showing in the remaining primaries. She can build the momentum, from her point of view, to show that Barack Obama is not electable. With all the things that have came out on Barack Obama, she had better stay in right up until the end. Think if something really condemning comes out on him. She could give the Super delegates a good argument for selecting her as the more electable candidate.If the Democrats nomination was ran the way the Republican primaries were, Hillary Clinton would have already won the nomination. That is if the winner take all system were in place in Democratic primaries as it is with the republicans. I believe She really does have a much greater chance of winning against Senator John McCain in November.

If Barack Obama is the nominee, Michigan is really shaping up to be the key battleground state. John McCain has been campaigning there, and he has been focusing all of his November strategy already on Barack Obama being the nominee. If Hillary could pull off an upset it would throw the McCain camp for a bit of a loop, and they view her as the much stronger candidate to face in the
November showdown.

Conservatives like Rush Limbaugh and Sean Hannity, haven't been in Hillary's corner lately because they consider her the weaker candidate, it is because they have felt by keeping the contest going it would cause a lot of chaos and division in the Democratic ranks. Anyone who has been following the election from, a Republican Presidential victory, point of view will tell you; As things stand right now Barack Obama is by far the weaker candidate.

I believe if Barack Obama becomes the Democratic nominee, as is very likely, Michigan will play a very key role in a match up against John McCain. Against Barack Obama, I believe Mitt Romney would be his best choice for Veep. Michigan is Mitt Romney's home state. It would also strenghten John McCain in western states. There Romney, like Obama done really well in many of those States primaries.

I believe Hillary with all the energy and money she has personally put into this race, is in it all the way to the convention. It is totally against everything that makes her Hillary Clinton to drop out. The five biggest reasons why she will not drop out are:

1) Hillary Clinton
2) Hillary Clinton
3) Hillary Clinton, well you get the idea.

True with all the free media coverage she is getting it shouldn't cost her that much to just keep moving forward with the campaign.

The more dirt Hillary digs up on Obama, the less McCain has to do it. Hillary can't win (unless someone does a Vince Foster on Obama), and this will further divide the Dems. So soldier on, Hill... Give 'em Bill!!

Let her do what she has to do. She won't be around too much longer. I felt she ran a "me-too" campaign & agree with you there's not much of a difference between them. What it comes down to is our confidence in the group thats chosen to surround the new President, assuming either of them are elected. BHO may be at best the most naive blunderbuss in the Senate, going by these reports from FoxNews.

But alas, I'm wary that the media has cherry-picked the worst out of the worst they could find on, not BHO but any of his associates thru six degrees of seperation. Then, I think they super-analyse the clips to death, so what we end up doing is, getting a brainwashed group of voters with wholly distorted views and that, my chosen one, could be the death of our democracy.

Don't let your vote decision rest on gossipy tabloid style news, or your love for personalities. Just remember, a few BHO associates in his life have had problems, but I think, the Senator is part of the solution to the problem, and not the problem itself.

The wily media moguls really slant their coverage to fool and confuse you.

AT THIS POINT THE ONLY WAY TO BRINGS THE DEMS TOGETHER IS A DREAM TICKET.

That isn't going to happen. I hear the word in the Obama camp is that if Obama were to pick Hillary Clinton as his V.P. he would need a food taster.
