She is not going to drop out.

She will go on to WV; the only event that would change this would be a superdelegate surge for Obama that would secure his nomination and if that was going to happen, we'd know by now. She will win West Virginia next week on May 13th and use this as an excuse to remain in the race and continue to raise questions about Obama's electability among whites. She will acquire more superdelegates in this time. On May 20th, she'll take Kentucky and he'll take Oregon. With Obama's expected wins in Montana and South Dakota, I think we'll likely see a good number of commitments after the May 20 primary but not enough to make the remaining two states' votes moot. The remaining supers will commit to Obama on June 4rth.

The last of Hillary's hopes died with her one and three hundredths of a percent win in Indiana -- her argument to supers about working class votes will not be convincing, at least not to the degree that they will override the pledged delegate totals. The remainder of the race is ceremonial.

1. Ahab, anyone?

2. Well, there's a silver lining to that cloud.

She and her die-hard supporters will continute to humiliate themselves. While politically irrelevant, at least it's entertaining.

7. Forget the Hillary supporters, I'm impressed with the number of Edwards supporters who are blowing..

their stacks today.

3. Really, I think we will know if she's going to drop out by the number of SDs who announce this week.

If Hillary is still running just to get through the week or WV in order to keep Obama from losing a non-contested state, the SDs will hold off till she drops so that everyone saves face. If she is serious about dragging this to the convention then we'll see an onslaught of SDs announcing for Obama in the next couple of days.

4. give the SD's more than 10 hours

The dam is bursting

5. I want her out as much as any one however she should stay in

gracefully till KY and WV...

[medeak]

6. she's fundraising

under the guise of campaigning. Let's all let it go

[krawhitham]

8. You do not want her to drop out

As long as she does not attack Obama you want her to stay in

It would not look good to lose two contests a canidate who has dropped out

[NotThisTime]

9. Does anyone know how many voters there are in Oregon? W. Virginia, KY?
