Hillary should stay in

Posted on Monday 19 May 2008

Hillary should stay in the race until the elections are over on June 3. It’s just two weeks from tomorrow.

Speaking as someone who declared support for Obama when he first got in the race, I’m fine with Clinton staying in through the final primary. She’s been campaigning for some two years. How is another two weeks going to matter?Let her enjoy her victory in Puerto Rico and then exit gracefully.

Yes, we all can see that Obama is several comfortable strides ahead of her — he’s ahead in pledged delegates, superdelegates, states won, and the popular vote. But only a quitter drops out when the finish line is in sight.

People who call for her to drop out keep saying that she’s dividing the party. Do you know what’s dividing the party? Calling for her to drop out in the final lap.

So cut it out, will ya?
