Why Hillary won't quit

Hillary doesn’t fight on for selfish reasons, says Politico; she fights on to save the Democrats from themselves:serial number s80 media player

Why, ask many Democrats and media commentators, won’t Hillary Rodham Clinton see the long odds against her, put her own ambitions aside, and gracefully embrace Barack Obama as the inevitable Democratic nominee?

… as with Kerry, the effort to depict Obama as an out-of-touch urban lib will be like pushing water downhill; it is so much easier when reality is on your side. In a nut shell, the Dems have six more months of trying to stay in costume at the masquerade ball; Republicans have six more months to strip away Obama’s mask. Who ya gonna bet on?
