    Hallucinations

    There seems to be a hardcore of Clinton supporters who wrongly believe that she has a realistic chance of winning her party's nomination. This is rather astonishing, since she would need to win every remaining primary by large margins and then convince most superdelegates to vote for her. The odds of that happening are zero. If anything, obama will win most of the remaining primaries, possibly all of them. With the exception of the publicity and job sicking Hackebee, any rational candidate would have already withrawn from the race if he/she were in Clinton's position. Ihate to consider giuliani and Romney as rational, but they had been in hillaty's position and made the proper call. There's no reason for Hillary to still be in a race she will certainly lose. Presidential primaries are not an ego gratifying experience or an NFL game that must go on till the last second untill the ref blows the whistle, they are meant to pick the party's nominee for the presidency, period.
