The Hillary Question

There are many things that come to mind as I look at Hillary Clinton's refusal to concede the race to Obama.

1. Is it that she is so absorbed with becoming President that she has not faced up to reality? I don't really think that's it.

2. Is she assuming the mantle of "power broker" for her supporters and leveraging her support within the party to influence platforms at the convention? I can't see her having such "high" motives.

3. Is she taking it to the Convention with the intention of a bitter fight to the end? The "super delegates" can still change their mind. If she can bring the nomination fight to a draw it becomes a free-for-all. This scenario fits her personality.

4. Is she going to "force" Obama to make her VP? This one also is a possibility. It puts her next in line if something were to happen to Obama. This one also fits her personality and could be construed to fit some of her remarks. It is an extremely sensitive subject and one that could be the source of a racial war within this country.

5. Is there something that we don't know? The MSM tells the story they want us to hear. Is there something that we aren't being told? Could there be some information that has been suppressed that might totally change everything? A possibility.

I just wish the GOP had a stronger candidate in the race. Senator McCain is carrying as much or more baggage than Hillary.
