If she were she'd figure out a way to unite the party and end this madness that cannot - I repeat CANNOT - deliver her the nomination without having burned the party to the ground and secured a lasting Republican dynasty due to completely disenfranchising a huge number of solid Democrats. The only path to nomination for Hillary is complete scorched earth annihilation. This has been clear for some time now. @2: All evidence points to the fact that she doesn’t care and is not a team player.

Even fellow Obama supporters thought I was crazy a month ago. I am glad that people have started to wake up and realize it. I won't go as far as to accuse her of staying in to sabotage Obama, and I'd like to believe her when she says she's a team player and that putting a Democrat in the White House is the most important thing. But if she really felt that way and had a track record of making that her priority, why did John Kerry endorse Obama?

They ask why I stay in the ’08 race when Obama has an insurmountable lead in states, delegates, and popular vote. My strategy is for victory in the 2012 presidential election. I will continue to pursue several lines of attack on Obama including denouncing his experience, blaming him for the fiascos in Michigan & Florida, and even praising our Republican rival Senator John McCain as more patriotic and experienced than Obama. My goal is to do extensive damage to Obama to ensure that he looses the general election in ’08 and pave the way for my eventual election in 2012! It’s a HILLARYOUS strategy, but I will be president by any means necessary.
