Up until today, I have refused to ask Hillary Clinton to step aside. Even though I’m solidly in the Obama camp, I didn’t feel it fair to ask/expect her to step aside. She was always a strong candidate, with a strong platform. I don’t agree with her on a number of issues, but I do respect her, and I do believe that she loves this country. I had felt that it’s her right to stay in this thing . . . to the very end. I didn’t think that it could possibly cause any harm. BUT, now that I’ve read:

. . . I now feel that – for the good of the party and the process – she really should strongly consider stepping aside. McCain is rising up the polls, without really doing or saying anything, mainly because the Democrats are still engaged in a slam dance. I realize she still may have something up her sleeve, and she IS more connected to the Democratic party machine, but she needs to consider the long term consequences of a protracted battle with Obama. Her calling it a day would be the ultimate sacrifice, and it would really prove how much she loves this country.
