SubscribeHillary Won’t Quit, Counts On Superdelegates
From her undying fans at the Associated Press:
Clinton rules out leaving race early
By BETH FOUHY, Associated Press Writer Sat Mar 29
HAMMOND, Ind. - If Hillary Rodham Clinton is feeling heat from pundits and party elders to quit the race and back Barack Obama, you’d never know it from her crowds, energy level and upbeat demeanor on the campaign trail.
"There are millions of reasons to continue this race: people in Pennsylvania, Indiana and North Carolina, and all of the contests yet to come," Clinton told reporters Friday. "This is a very close race and clearly I believe strongly that everyone should have their voices heard and their votes counted." …
"I believe a spirited contest is good for the Democratic Party and will strengthen the eventual nominee," she said. "We will have a united party behind whomever that nominee is. … I look forward to campaigning over the next several months." …
At events here and in North Carolina on Thursday, Clinton raised the issue of whether she should quit the race, only to have it firmly batted down by her supporters.
"There are some people who are saying, you know, we really ought to end this primary, we just ought to shut it down," she said in Mishawaka, Ind., drawing cries of "No, no!" inside a packed gymnasium.
In Hammond, she compared the state’s struggling steel industry to her own efforts to fight the odds.
"I know a little bit about comebacks," she said to cheers. "I know what it’s like to be counted down and counted out. But I also know there is nothing that will keep us down if we are determined to keep on." …
The New York senator reaffirmed her belief that superdelegates will base their choice on which candidate would make the best president and would have the best chance to beat Republican John McCain in November.
All the more reason to look forward to Pennsylvania’s primary April 22, Indiana and North Carolina’s May 6 and the handful of others that follow, Clinton insisted.
"There will be additional information that will inform those decisions that will come from these upcoming contests," she said…
Should we be shouting "go, Hillary go!" or "stay, Hillary, stay!"?
Personally, I still think we should have driven the stake through her heart while we had the chance.

I disagree SG. I think the longer she stinks up the place the better it is for conservatives.

Since there isn’t a plug nickel’s worth of difference between their big government, tax raising, entitlement/dependency-encouraging, anti-military/corporation, balkanizing socialist vision for the country, I’m glad that people are having a chance to see the slug fest. I don’t doubt that it’s going to get much worse yet.

“Personally, I still think we should have driven the stake through her heart while we had the chance.”
Actually with everything we’ve heard about Obama and his slum lord friend I think hes starting to make hillary look a little decent, which is pretty scary.

Hillary look a little decent?
The most dishonest, negligent, manipulative, self serving we have on the Public stage is looking ‘decent’, because of the vapid liberal folly of Mr. Obama, and his pathetic Pastor?
whoooa…
The Clintons take the cake.
They are looking nutty in their deceit, denial, greed.
I agree with the mighty SG, enabling Hillary and Bill, even for entertainment purposes, is playing with fire.
Seems ironic, as racism is going to play a role in the DNC Primary again in PA, giving Hillary a little more Primary Time.
If the Clintons were able to swindle this dreadful Campaign disaster into the Nomination, (after having clearly lost), look for far worse in the General.

it is amazing when one claims underdog status when entering the race with more advantages than any other candidate in our history. the reason she is behind is due to arrogance coupled with ineptness and if she were to win (shudder) the presidency we all better start learning Arabic.

As much as I hate to say it, Hillary is a “lock” for the Dem nomination….. The party elders know that the Reverend Wright issue makes Obama unelectable in the general election.He’s dead,….. He’ll eventually “see the light” and will wind up taking the VP slot. He better get some solid assurances from the Dems vis-a-vis his vice presidential powers….If not he’ll wind up with nothing, just like Al Gore in ‘92… This “dream ticket” will occur if the Dem hierearchy has any clue whatsoever…..(Here’s hoping that they don’t).
