Go easy on Julian. I didn't ask him the question so others would/could attack him.
Anyhow, I don't see her sticking this out much longer. I'd be shocked if she were still in for a couple more days let alone two weeks from now. The math is so far against her at the moment that even seating the half delegations in Florida like the Republicans are doing and all of Michigan, she still won't be able to catch up without a Super-Delegate revolt. But with the diminishing numbers of super delegates left, even the revolt is extrememly unlikely.
That being said, she is the most important Democrat in the nation right now. This election will be decided by the candidate that lost the Democratic nomination, not the candidate that won the nomination. Her ability and willingness to convince her supporters to now support Obama will mean all the difference in the November General election.
That's why I was so intrigued by a comment made on CNN late last night that one pundit has it on good authority that Hillary is in it until the Democrats guarantee her the VP slot. At first, I thought no way (as I have from day one from an Obama perspective), but after thinking about it over night, if true it might not be the worst case scenario for the Dems. That's a big if, mind you. I still don't see her wanting it over being in charge of the Senate, but if you're Obama and this is true, wouldn't you rather put up with her in your corner rather than have her tank you for a 2012 run?
I've come all the way around on this and given her decent success in last couple of months, she may be more valuable to him then I once thought.
