Even when Clinton wins she loses. Hillary has been out spent, out voted, and out maneuvered. At the start of her campaign she had every advantage going her way: more money (over $200 million dollars), name recognition, DNC support, loyal voters, her husband's record, and inevitability; yet she is still losing by every mathematical equation.
In each case Clinton has made no in-roads into Obama's supporters. In contrast Obama has made inroads with Clinton supporters. For instance comparing Ohio and Pennsylvania Clinton lost support among both whites and African Americans. And many women have switched to Obama because of her polarizing, divisive tactics. Furthermore there is no guarantee Hillary would win either state because the general election is a whole different ball game.
Clinton claims Obama does not do well in the rural areas, but that is not true. Obama has overwhelming support in the mid-west, the west plains and the coastal south whereas the Appalachian Mountain Trail goes to Hillary.
I have no problem with Hillary staying in the race as long as she fights Obama on the issues. But her underhanded rovian attempts to destroy Obama could very well cost the democrats the WH in the long run. Thus she loses, Obama loses, the party loses and the country loses in the long run. We cannot afford -- in every sense of the word -- another 4 years of Bush and Cheney type "leadership."
If the super delegates give Hillary the nomination they ought to note trivializing the African American voters, the youth voters and discounting small states primaries and big state caucuses translates into Hillary winning by losing.
