Pssht! Hardly!
During the General Election, that would be like dropping out just before the last states close their polls, because things didn't look so good for you in the other races. Hillary has not lost this contest. It is an illusion. Many Obama supporters are pulling out the only piece of arsenal they have left in their armory, which is doubt about Hillary's chances of winning the Democratic Party's nomination. After the votes in Texas and Ohio were counted, we found out that they want Hillary for their president. When they count the votes in Pennsylvania, on April 22, we will find out that its people want Hillary for president. On May 20, Kentucky will vote for president, and Hillary will win handily. It's a fact, Kentucky loves the Clintons. And no candidate has won the presidency, since 1960, without Kentucky's support. In November, Kentucky will not vote for Obama. I guarantee it. But we'll give Hillary a chance.
Perhaps, those calling for Hillary to drop out should weigh Barack Obama's chances of beating John McCain in the General Election. Like Kentuckians, I do not think the bulk of Americans are going to elect Obama over McCain. Obama has too little of a record, which will be used extensively against him by Republicans. Who is this candidate? What does he stand for? Can we trust him with the economy? Iraq? Whereas, Senator McCain's public record goes all the way back to the Stone Age.
Sure, Hillary has had her share of problems and setbacks. Who among us--besides Barack Obama--can say otherwise? Character is built by the way we overcome adversity and deal with those issues in our lives and careers. Hillary is standing taller than ever, because she has completely overcome her personal adversity. We become stronger by learning from our mistakes. Our country will benefit greatly from Hillary's wisdom and strength.
As President Clinton said, his family is not big on quitting. I am proud to lend my complete support to Hillary Clinton. I demand that she carry out the democratic process to its logical conclusion. That is to say, give every state its constitutional right to be heard.

I don't know if she should necessarily drop out now, but the odds are not looking good. If she's going to stay in the race she should at least hold off on the personal attacks on Obama. The Democrats winning in November is what's most important, not who the nominee is.
I could not disagree with you more! The Democratic Party's nominee is very crucial to winning in November. If Senator Obama cannot take the attacks now, from his Democratic rival, how can he expect to survive the onslaught of Republican attacks between the nomination and November? John McCain, and other Republicans, are not going to deal with him with kid gloves. They are going to crucifiy him, resurrect him, and then crucify him all over again! It's not going to be pretty at all. Barack Obama has already demonstrated that he cannot take the personal heat. He crashes and burns. Hillary Clinton is the Democratic Party's only hope for success.
