Keep up Momentum!
If Hillary actually had America's best interests in mind instead of her own, she would drop out of the race and throw her (and her husband's) weight behind Barack Obama. Obama has the unique ability to be both more progressive on issues than Hillary and also more appealing to moderates and independents. Hillary, regardless of whether it's fair or not, has the unique ability to unite huge numbers in solid opposition to her. In other words, she can very effectively mobilize the opposition against her. Just what the democrats need least.
This is backed up by numerous recent polls. According to the New Republic:
In the past two weeks, seven different organizations have polled the races and on average Obama beats McCain by 3.2%, while Clinton loses to the Arizona senator by 2%. Not a single [poll] has Clinton doing as well as Obama.
Drop the power trip and do what's right for your country, Mrs. Clinton!
