Should she stay or should she go

By Libby

I haven't weighed in on Tuesday's results for a number of reasons, mainly because of my work schedule but I've been reading as much of the speculation as I could stand and I see Marc Ambinder has a pretty good list of reasons she should stay in. The only one I find really compelling is the last one.

7. Unity. If Clinton campaigns appropriately, she can help Obama begin to help heal the party.

That's a big "if" as far as I can see from the latest spin coming out of the Clinton camp but one lives in hope that Senator Clinton can find her way towards waging a more positive campaign in these remaining contests. If she can turn her attacks on McCain's transgressions instead of relentlessly framing her Democratic opponent in GOP terms that have been used against all Democrats for all these many years the Republicans have been in power, then something good can come of this prolonged race. Anything less robs the Democrats of an opportunity to gain the Oval Office with the largest mandate in recent history.
