Hillary Clinton Watch: Forcing Hillary Out

Gary Varvel on the Tortoise and the Hill

The African American block of Democrat House members are playing their race card in an attempt to force Hillary Clinton out of the Presidential race.

“If this party is perceived by people as having gone into a back room somewhere and brokered a nominee, that would not be good for our party,” House Majority Whip James E. Clyburn (S.C.), the highest ranking African American in Congress, warned yesterday. “I’m telling you, if this continues on its current course, [the damage] is going to be irreparable.”

Well, Hillary is NOT going anywhere. She and Bill know that if Obama is the disparaged nominee that Hillary will be resurrected after four years of a McCain presidency (McCain due to age constraints REALLY will only serve one term).

If Hillary wins Indiana while holding her own in North Carolina, the race will not be over until the convention.

But, the pleas for Hillary to withdraw will intensify:

• “If you have any, any kind of loyalty to the Democratic Party, perhaps you need to rethink your strategy and bow out gracefully in order to save this party from a disastrous end in November,” Rep. William Lacy Clay (Mo.), an African American Obama supporter, said in an appeal to Clinton.

Hillary will NOT withdraw until the Fat Lady sings and she is NOT even in the building.
