Hillary enters death-with-dignity phase

If she hasn't already quit, it's hard to envision Clinton continuing her unwinnable -- even with Florida and Michigan -- battle beyond June 4.

    Angela from the Center

    Obama will be neither strong enough, nor knowledgeable enough, nor experienced enough to accomplish anything to repair the destruction that has been wrought on the society and its laws and people.

    Sheer presumption on your part.

    And probably not true. Obama has run a successful campaign against the supposedly older and wiser Clinton, evidence that Obama could be the more capable candidate.

    Still, if Hillary Clinton wins the nomination we should all give her our enthusiastic support.

    On the other hand, Hillary will prove herself to be a loyal Democrat, and not really a closet neocon, by graciously conceding the nomination if it becomes clear that she cannot win.

    Don't you agree?
