Please just go away...now

I will admit that I can be a pretty stubborn person at times, but I've got nothing on Hillary Clinton. The direction that her campaign has headed, and continues to head, is really just pathetic. She's already lost this race, and everyone knows it. She should have quit long ago, but decided to keep going, hoping that things might change. However, last night proved that if anything, things have just gotten worse for her. She lost NC by a full 14 points and barely won Indiana, a state that was made up primarily of people who usually support her (her primary support is from white, poorly educated people, over the age of 65). She has to lend her campaign money (to the tune of over 6 million dollars) because she can't raise enough to compete, her political and personal friends are switching to support Obama, and she's behind in every single metric of the campaign. This includes being behind in popular vote, pledged delegates, and states won. Even if she were to win every remaining state by 60%, and win 60% of the super delegates (something that she cannot possibly do), she'd still lose to Obama! So what it comes down to is this...she has almost no more experience than Obama, has a worse senate record for passing bills, is a proven liar, cannot raise money, and offers temporary solutions that are bad in the long run (like her gas tax repeal), which are clearly just poor moves to increase her votes. Her strategy is atrocious at best, and it's clearly not working. And even worse, she obviously does not care about the Democratic party at all, which will certainly suffer in the general election because of her foolishness.

Personally, I'm voting republican, so it actually benefits me if she stays in the race. Like it or not, especially at this point, neither one of them has much of a shot against McCain in the general. But, I'm really just getting tired of hearing her voice. It is sort of amusing though, to hear her say that she's steaming forward on the road to the White House, after being pounded in the most recent primaries and losing in every way possible, with practically no statistical chance of recovery.
