Hillary. It’s time to throw in the towel!

There comes a time when candidates for elected office should pull the plug. We have all heard the on-going “spin” of Senator Clinton who can be credited for being a fighter. Her only problem is that in this case, competing against Senator Obama, she will not be the winner.
The following text comes from the May 28th AP.

WASHINGTON (AP) – A Democratic Party rules committee has the authority to seat some delegates from Michigan and Florida but not fully restore the two states as Hillary Rodham Clinton wants, according to party lawyers.

The memo was sent late Tuesday to the 30 members of the party’s Rules and Bylaws Committee, which plans to meet Saturday at a Washington hotel. The committee is considering ways to include the two important general election battlegrounds at the nominating convention in August, and the staff analysis says seating half the delegates is “as far as it legally can” go.
