Don't worry. Hillary will stay in and steal the nomination at the convention with her overwhelming lead in Super-Delegates.

My only fear is that she will drop out, or lose over and over but keep cool in public and America will never get to see her for the out of control, power hungry, maniacal bitch that she is.

Or withdraw now, and work to ensure an open convention,
where delegates can be threatened, bought, interned, etc.

Hillary may not want to discover what her own party
really thinks of her. Fortunately for her, the Democrat
party hasn’t advocated actual democracy in decades.

Aren't the super delegates commitments verbal, as in not binding, as in Bill's wedding vows?

Oh, man -- if she manages to lose most of the primaries but win the nomination anyway because of some arcane convention rules, pass the popcorn....

That is correct! I keep on mentioning that too, but many people here say that the superdelegates are not locked up. Thats nonsense. The DNC is NOT a democracy by any means.

I tend to agree. She’s in a position that a few threats and busted kneecaps by the Clintonistas won’t fix.

While I agree counting a Clinton out until you have the votes certified is dumb Clinton is in trouble right now.

Only 31 Superdelegates are comitteed at this point. The Supers care only about winning. The Supers will bail on Hillary in heartbeat if Obahma looks electable. Only Obahma can destroy Obahma now and he looks like he is a fast learner. Never makes the same mistake twice, is carefully vague in his speaking, has no political baggage. Never thought I would see a politician who could out slick Slick Willie!

Obahma also doesn’t make the sort of repeated bone head speaking errors both Al (I invented the Internet) Gore and Bill ( Tell me what you want and I will promise to do it) Clinton use to server up.

To those add the country’s rabidly angry mindset at the political establishment and the almost daily meltdowns in Hillary’s camp with stupid gaff after gaff and the Supers are going to be looking to Obahma to “save them”.

The only thing the Supers care about is winning. Obahma looks like a winner, Hillary’s astronomical negatives make her look like a loser. The Supers are all ready scare the Clinton legacy will mean Hillary will be a candidate with negative coattails down ticket.

Hillary is in a whole lot of trouble but news of her demise is just wishful thinking or a clever bit of Edwards or Obahama campaign disinformation at this point.
