The latest polls, just out to night (Tuesday March 25, 2008)show O'Bama slashing HRC's PA lead to just 10% and opening up a 21% lead in NC. HRC has been reduced to revisiting the Rev. Wright issue, while she's being hammered on her Bosnia fib and NAFTA support about which she also fibbed.
We all admire the image of the brave fighter who looks destiny in the eye and soldiers on despite long odds. But this is politics and continuing the fight while clawing desperately at the image of the probable Democratic candidate will only be counter productive in thee extreme for Democratic chances in November. That's not bravery that's being foolhardy ala vain glorious Custer unless...
The Clintons don't give a rat's behind about the party, only themselves. Maybe they are already posturing for a run in 2012 when one term McCain will retire and there will be another open battle.
The only thing wrong with that scenario is that at the rate HRC is going now, she won't have the credibility to ever mount a serious campaign again.
The one brave thing for Hillary to do is recognize that her only chance this year is to destroy Obama and since even that might not work, she will earn the same honored place in the Democratic Party that Benedict Arnold has at West Point.
Be brave Hillary. Stop the carnage. If you can't quite quit, at least conduct a campaign that people will respect. Destroying Obama and Democratic Party in 2008 will earn you nothing but infamy. Leaving gracefully will preserve your tomorrow.
It's time for HRC to show some real bravery.
