Obama is poised to win all three of the Potomac Primary states today and poised to win rather convincingly. A big win will probably put him at least a few delegates into the lead. But there is no reason for Clinton to drop out at that point. As long as she has the money to campaign in Wisconsin and on March 4th, I fail to see why falling slightly behind Obama after a month of contests in which Obama was expected to win should mean the death of her campaign. Ohio and Texas are supposedly favorable ground for Clinton, and if she has the money to compete, I see no reason she should not compete. I am tired of the need of the press and political consultants to just get all this messy voting stuff done and over with. The purpose of primaries is to allow for Democrats to vote on who they wish the nominee to be. That more people than usual are getting the opportunity to weight in on the contest is a good thing. And, as long as the two camps don’t go nuclear on each other, I fail to see why having battleground states awash in Democratic messages and Democratic candidates is bad for the general election.

There is just no reason for Clinton to give into the odd desire of the media and give up.
