Hillary and Bill are destroying their reputation...look how they are conducting their campaign...Are they really concerned about the best interest of the party...?

Math matters.

Between now and mid April the Super Delegates in the Party could end this by doing the math and assessing the damage of the current "anything goes" Clinton Campaign.

This much is clear:

Senator Clinton can not win the Nomination without inflicting great damage on the Democratic Party.

If she does manage to carve a rough path to the Nomination, having her at the top of the Ticket will hurt Democrats up and down the ticket in all 50 States.

Now, Senator Clinton might be able to eek out a 50%+1 victory, but the costs will be very, very high.

And it is very, very unlikely she can win under any circumstances. According to Chuck Todd on Countdown last night, she needs to win 65% of all remaining contests AND Uncommitted Super Delegates to have any chance. Obama only needs to win 45% of all remaining contests. Each time he beats 45%, Senator Clinton's "magic number" grows.

If only 50 Super Delegates move to Obama in the next six weeks, this race is over. They should move now.

I know that she is "in it to win it", but I just wish she would occasionally think about her Country and her Party.

These years of Republican rule clearly prove that the ends do not justify the means.

It is another lesson of the Bush years I wish Senator Clinton would absorb.

She should join the reality based community and admit defeat.

The Clintons have been "Breaking the Final Rule"...
