Alcary:

Its rather hard to say that Clinton is doing worse. By almost every estimation she has won the popular vote, she has won the key states... Sh's hands-down ahead in national polls and looks to have a better chance against McCain by the same polls etc. Neither will likely finish with enough delegates to clinch the nomination. The media has done their best to 'invent' front runners and then 'upset them' with 'astounding late breaking news'. I'm not saying that this would be won in Clintons favor if it were not for the media, but I am saying that if you look at things, the media has been manipulating perception from the start on both primary processes.

We have a convention for a reason. Its no more reasonable to say Obama is a 'loser' and should 'drop out' than it is to say Clinton is a 'loser'. Let them go to the convention and make their cases to the party. They are likely to be even closer in delegate count by the time they get there.

PS: Did you see the Clinton-Oreilly 'interview'? Have you ever seen Oreilly so effectively disarmed and shut down? go find it on Youtube.
