Hilary Clinton, It's Time to Give Up

This Democratic Presidential Primary will definitely go down in history as being one of a kind. Perhaps one of the biggest surprises has been the fact that there are still 2 people running on the side of the Democrats. It was thought that one or the other would have bowed out of the race by now...if for no other reason, for the sake of the Democratic party.

Yet Hilary Clinton and Barack Obama are both still going strong and both speak of planning to win the nomination. But facts are facts. And the fact is that Barack Obama is ahead and the delegates are going to him. With the recent endorsement of John Edwards, Obama picked up even more delegates.

Since Clinton's lie regarding hostile fire, she has lost trust among the people. A recent poll on www.buzzdash.com shows Obama at 55% or the people's trust as opposed to 24% of the people who say they trust Clinton. John McCain picked up the lowest percentage of 21%.

With each passing day, Obama looks stronger and more confident as Clinton looks more and more desperate. Not only does she look desperate, she seems a bit delusional in even thinking she can win. People within her own campaign have advised her to drop out, but she keeps holding on, claiming that she is going to win the nomination.

The question is...can she? Is it even a possibility given the current political climate? I just don't see her winning unless Obama does something really bad to upset the trust and confidence that people have in him. I don't believe any negative ads by the Clinton campaign are going to make a difference at this point. They are just going to be seen as desperate measures by a desperate candidate.

For awhile, the Clinton campaign seemed to hold out a lot of hope based on the fact that she did best in the polls which placed her against McCain. But lately, that just isn't the case. Hilary Clinton has done the Democratic party more harm than anything by hanging around as long as she has. The sparring between her and Obama has made McCain look good even in the eyes of some of the Democrats. And that is precisely what the Democratic party would like to avoid.
