The Clinton campaign for the Democratic nomination is over. Even Talking Skull Carville knows the math and the momentum are against her. The Clinton’s open attempt to use race to attract more white voters has discredited her, her campaign and her husband’s legacy. Superdelegates will not tie party prospects, or their own futures, to such a negative campaign.
So why is Hillary continuing? Is it the VP slot? campaign debts? to put a universal health care plank in the Democratic election platform? No, it is none of these things, Hillary can not quit because she is a prisoner of her own personality. She can not quit no matter what effect it has on her party, or family finances or the good name of her former President husband.
Fighting when you can not win AND when you have other options (US Senator is not exactly a job flipping burgers) is not admirable, it is simply irrational. Unfortunately advisers like Carville appear to lack the cajones to persuade Clinton to drop her irrational, destructive campaign.
