Initially it was cute and entertaining, but now it is downright annoying. It is also an outright embarrassment to the Democratic Party, and to anyone who is a Hillary Clinton supporter.
Here are the facts:
>>> Barack Obama holds the majority of delegates available to the Democratic Party. This includes pledged and super delegates.
>>> Barack Obama, although not winning the "Big States" has won the majority of the states in the contest to date.
>>> Barack Obama still holds the lead in the overall popular vote.
>>> Barack Obama has remained on the surplus side of campaign finances, while Hillary has slipped into the red at least 5 times since the campaign began.
This is not to mention the fact that Barack Obama has run a virtually clean campaign against Hillary Clinton, while she - Hillary - has thrown as much mud as she could at Barack, even going as low as to post a picture of him from a trip to Kenya, and to field the claim that the lesser educated white people in America love her.
Regardless of the fact that not even the remaining super delegates, nor any numbers from Florida or Michigan can help her numerically, Hillary still insists that she can win the nomination.
This is funny, because it seems that her math is way off the mark. I know her college professors are wondering if Hillary is basing her calculations on those Voodoo economics that George Herbert Walker Bush spoke of in 1980?
Bottom line is this America; Hillary is done. She can not mathematically overcome the majority held by Barack Obama, it is not statically possible. I am extremely surprise that Bill Clinton has not told Hillary to hang up her hat. Then again, after the statement Chelsea made comparing her mother to her father, I am beginning to wonder who really wears the pants in the Clinton family.
Once upon a time in America, there was a gentleman named Thomas Payne who wrote a book that was simply titled "Common Sense". At this time in America, it appears that "Common Since" amounts to nothing more than an ant shouting at a football game, as not may people seem to be aware of it. One incredibly practical lady working with me once quoted that "If sense was common, everyone would have it". I must admit she is right, an as such sense must not be common in the Clinton Campaign.
Think about this America. John McCain really does not have to do much over the course of the next few months because Hillary Clinton is doing the dirty work for him. Instead of illustrating solidarity within the Democratic Party, Hillary is turning the race into a personal vendetta. In the eyes of Hillary, no "Black man" is going to be a "White woman" in Clinton's America. The shame in that way of thinking is in the fact that America is trying to heal the black eye it received as a result of racial prejudice. We are in the 21st century, yet Hillary wants to hold the Democratic Party firmly in the middle of the 20th.
It is time to face the facts. Barack Obama is the statistical winner of the Democratic nomination. It is time for Hillary to lay her banner down and support Obama and indeed the entire Democratic Party in the efforts to beat John McCain.
