I hope she does!
While I think very little of her as a person and have NO agreement with her ideology, I have to say, she’s got tenacity.
Suppose the rules committee goes against her on May 31st. Then she would have to trigger a floor fight at the convention, wouldn’t she? At least if we can take on face value that she strongly believes these votes should count. If we believe that she has any strong core beliefs.
The Dem. race could be in limbo till the convention if that happens, if she decides to go for a floor fight. Obama will almost certainly get to 2026 delegates by June 3rd, including more super delegate endorsements, but if Florida and Mich. get counted, the number needed to clinch it goes to 2210. And then we would all have to wait for the floor fight and roll call of states at the convention to see if Barry gets his 2210+. Or to see the results of the floor fight to see if 2210 is the magic number needed.
Or Hillary could concede and spare Democrats some grief.
That's the one thing I give her credit for (Ron Paul, too, for that matter) and wish to God our side had a whole lot more of. If they're going to go down, they'll go down swinging.
I gotta agree. The lady has been abandonned by putative allies, mauled by the press and denounced from nearly every liberal quarter and yet she keeps fighting. And why shouldn't she? She won KY last night by 250,000 votes. Against the presumed nominee of her party!! I'll say one thing...Hillary can take a punch.
I've always believed Hillary would be relatively good on Foreign Policy, because regardless of the lies she tells herself and her base, if anyone ever attacked the U.S., she would take it personally and surely make them regret it.
To now cry sexism when for 15 months her complaint focused on unfair media is a stretch.
To feign concern about Michigan and Florida voters shows how self-serving and dishonest she is. Her statement last September was very specific -- "SC, Iowa, NH and Nevada play a unique and special role in the nomination process. And believe the DNC rules and its calendar provide the necessary structure to respect and honor that role. Thus we will be signing a pledge to adhere to the DNC approved nominating calendar."
Pundits have predicted she will do the honorable thing come June 3rd and bow out graciously. Don't bet on it!

So has a Remora.
This is life and death for Herself, a loss now and it’s really all over for her and X42, the hustings and the press
won’t be the same for her after this.
I have to say, she’s got tenacity...............
Most rattlesnakes do!
