Talking Why Hillary should stay

The more Hillary stays in the race the more she helps Obama. If she would have dropped out in March Obama wouldn't be where he is now.

How Come?

1. SHE MADE HIM A GIANT KILLER

No matter what happens in the fall, if Obama goes on to win the nomination, he'll be remembered as the candidate who beat the Clintons and the Clinton political machine.

“He is stronger for having beaten the champion,” The Clinton's were invincible before Super Tuesday, Obama did away with that myth.


2. SHE MADE HIM ANGRY

Obama’s relentless hope-hope-hope campaign put him in danger of being seen as soft, Hillary took out the aggression in him. She transformed him from Obambi into today's OBAMA.

3. SHE LED HIM TO THE WORKING CLASS

Hillary's success with this constituency exposed Obama's vulnerability with it — a vulnerability he might not have known existed to such an extent had Hillary dropped out early and Obama breezed to the nomination. At least now he has time to work getting their support.

4. THE WRIGHT FIGHT

While this doesn’t involve Hillary directly, the long primary battle allowed the emergence, and re-emergence, of the Rev. Jeremiah Wright Jr., to take place now, rather than later. As proven by the out come in Indiana and North Carolina, Wright has become past history. Even if he pops us later Obama will be ready to deal with the fall out.


5. HILLARY HELPED DEFINE OBAMA

Because of Hillary's constant *****ing amd moaning, she inadvertently helped define her opponent. Obama is now a better prepared and better defined candidate, and no doubt a stronger one, than he would have been without his rival. He went through 21 debates against a tough and angry Hillary, and improved steadily (with an exception in Philadelphia last month). He has made mistakes, but nothing fatal, and nothing he can’t learn from.

6. AND HAS THE RACE BEEN SO BAD?

Hillary has also been criticized for using arguments against Obama that Republicans might use in the fall. She has suggested, in so many words, that Mr. Obama is all talk, that he is not experienced, that he might not be ready to be commander in chief. Yet these are arguments that will be used against Obama despite Hillary.

Or did we all think Republicans are so dumb not to come up with them? .

Bottom-line, Hillary's presence is preparing Obama for the fallout he should expect in the fall, so the more she stays in the race the more she helps him.

Stay On Hillary!!!!!! GO GIRL!!!!!!!
