Democrats hoping Hillary Clinton doesn't do more damage
nydailynews.com — The toughest question for Hillary Clinton now is not if she drops out of the presidential race, or even when. It's how. Does she go down swinging at Democratic rival Barack Obama until the final primary on June 3, forcing Obama to spend precious time and money along the way?

Awww. Poor baby Baracky. Everyone's picking on him.
Crybaby Obama and his crybaby supporters need to stop whining and grow some spines. Never has such a gutless cowardly worm gotten this close to being nominated.
Obama appeals to all the dishonest cowardly cry-babies of the world. The nomination is nowhere near over, and Hilary looks to pick up a combined total of at least 60% of the popular vote in the next 3 primaries -- and maybe more. That'll give her the lead in the popular vote over the Great One.
Not only is Clinton leading Obama in upcoming primaries, she leads Obama in every match-up in the key battleground states of Ohio, Florida, & Pennsylvania against McCain. Clinton wins all 3 states against McCain, while Obama LOSES both Ohio & Florida. Clinton also leads Obama in margin of victory against McCain in the general election.
Super-delegates (and voters) should note that polls show that Hilary is polling much better than Obama in a general against McCain. In fact, polls show that Hilary Clinton would beat McCain in 3 key battleground states--Ohio, Pennsylvania, & Florida, while Obama would LOSE both Florida & Ohio to McCain in the general election.
In Ohio, Clinton beats McCain 47.7% to 42.3%. In contrast, Obama LOSES to McCain, 42.3% to 45.7%.
In Florida, Clinton beats McCain 45.&% to 44.0%. In contrast, Obama LOSES big to McCain, 40.0% to 49.0%.
In addition, Clinton beats McCain by a much larger margin in Pennsylvania than does Obama. In Pennsylvania, Clinton beats McCain 48.3% to 41.5%, while Obama beats McCain by only 44.0% to 42.8%
(A difference of +6.8% for Clinton vs. +1.2% for Obama)
Clinton is also polling better in the national polls against McCain.
Clinton leads McCain 47.7% to 43.1%, while Obama's lead is only 46.8% to 43.8%.
Democratic super-delegates and the Democratic Party had better think hard before they simply hand the primary to Obama, especially when large, strongly pro-Clinton states have been excluded from the primary. If the election were held today, Obama would lose both Florida and Ohio. And if Pennsylvania's razor-thin margin for Obama did not hold, he'd lose Pennsylvania as well. If the Dems lost those 3 states, McCain would definitely be the next President. Even if Dems lost "only" lost 2 of these states, Florida and Ohio, McCain would likely win the election.
