Let’s for a minute reverse the names and the facts on the ground:
Candidate Obama has won only a fraction of the number of states Candidate Clinton has won, is behind in both delegate and popular vote counts, and his campaign is almost in the red. He has won over only one Super Delegate in the last several weeks while losing others previously pledged to him.
Meanwhile Candidate Clinton has $30 million in the bank, leads–and has lead for weeks–in the delegate count, popular vote, and number of states won. There has been a steady stream of Super Delegates coming out for her including two former rivals for the nomination.
Please tell me Democrats and the MSM would still be talking about a neck and neck race and not about the folly of Candidate Obama staying in. Just as everyone watched Huckabee in amusement while McCain assumed the mantle of his party weeks ago Democrats would have clearly been doing the same around their obvious candidate.In reality it is only the Clinton brand name that is now keeping her in the race and thus putting the Democratic party in turmoil and at risk. Can you imagine the outcry that would be happening among Democrats if Candidate Obama was causing a potential Convention floor fight by stubbornly staying in?
