6 reasons Hillary should stay in the race ...

[Maribelle]

1. The popular vote - 34,622,902 - Of the number voting so far, Obama has not even won half the popular vote of the states that have voted. His count today is 16,531,880. He is not, as some like to claim, a clear choice.

2. The pledged delegates - Most (biased) MSM outlets, (biased) CNN political analysts and (biased) talking heads claim a significant higher number for Obama’s pledged delegates. It is significant because he has not really received the ‘pledged delegates’ in many of the caucus states, and will not until their state conventions are held.

3. The remaining states need to have their voices heard - The DNC has severely punished two states on the thesis that smaller states needed to have the chance to make their voices heard. How can even one person that supports the ’rules are rules’ conundrum against Florida and Michigan have the audacity to even hint at the fact that they feel Puerto Rico should not have their say? Forked tongues anyone?

4. Party Unity - Roughly half the democrats that voted truly believe Hillary is clearly the better candidate, and roughly half again of these say they will not vote in November or will vote for McCain. They are solidly convinced she will be a better president and a better world leader. Hillary could be the best tool the party has to heal this great chasm when the final votes are tallied.

5. Record turnouts - Hillary staying in the race facilitates turnout of historic proportions, a political boost to the ’get out the vote’ campaigns in state after state. This huge turnout will bode well for the Democrats in the General Election if they only do what is right for these voters.

6. Obama cannot win without superdelegates 'selecting' him - Period.
