next phase. Well, that's one way they can look at it....

[Colobo]

2. It's over.

[gateley]

6. It's not.

Regardless of how many delegates Obama gets, if Hillary refuses to accept it, she'll continue on.

It won't really be over until she concedes. And I don't think she's going to do that. Please prove me wrong, Hillary!

3. From the link:

From Ben Smith:
Ken Vogel reports from the Clinton bubble a Clinton spokesman is pushing back on the notion of a concession soon, something even many of her aides and top supporters now expect.

Hillary Clinton will not drop out of the presidential race Tuesday or in several days that follow, the spokesman,Mo Elleithee, said Monday afternoon.

"It's pretty clear that she's not conceding," Elleithee told reporters on Clinton's campaign plane en route from Rapid City, S.D. to Sioux City, Iowa.

Instead, Elleithee said Clinton would be "aggressively courting" superdelegates and "putting together the next phase of the campaign," which he said could include campaign events around the country.


More from ABC:
When asked why Clinton was spending tomorrow in New York at an event the campaign is calling a "victory party," Clinton’s spokesperson said, “it’s a good way to close out this phase of the campaign is come to New York bring all of her supporters together, have a big celebratory election night party as we move into the next phase of the campaign which is obviously the courting of these delegates.”

4. And if 51 Congressional SDs come out for Obama tomorrow?

And if people like Gore and Carter do the same? What rationale does she have then?

[gateley]

7. If she was being rational, she wouldn't still be in the race. nt

9. Someone is pulling someone's leg. I fervently hope. Playing the keep 'em guessing game.

5. They're absolutely right

The "wrap up, thank everyone who supported their efforts, update resumes, and endorse Sen. Obama" phase of the campaign

8. Tuesday is the last day I'll support her

[anigbrowl]

10. That's a nice way to put it.

11. Thank you enrique.

12. Kidnapping superdelegates or their family members?

[quaker bill]

13. This will bring unity

to the party in the same way George Bush has brought unity to the country. The unity will be in opposition to her.

There will be no floor fight, this will not go to the convention. The only question is just how many superdelegate defections it will take to put a stop to it.

14. Obama was in Michigan today. I watched his speech/town hall. He said Clinton will be with him every

step of the way..

You don't think that he has already offered her VP and she has accepted do you?

15. ohgod . I hope not. I won't be able to vote for him if so.

But, I think she is too delusional to go that route anyway. If she keeps going, it is for one reason only.
