I guess Hillary Clinton has nothing to lose by staying in the race.
Best case scenario - Obama pays Spitzer for sex and FOX news has it on tape.
Worse case scenario - the DLC and the big boys back Obama and HRC has to step aside.

Either way, why not stay in to the end. What is there to lose?

4. At this point what else can bring down the man?
Short of a Spitzer type scandal, I think BO got it in the bag..

5. Spitzer brought himself down, just like Clinton (both).
Nobody forced Spitzer to hire a prostitute, nobody forced Bill to have an affair, nobody forced HiLiary to fabricate and exagerate her resume. While perhaps a harsh punishment, they are paying the price for foolish behavior they CHOSE to commit, so I have little sympathy.

8. What's there to lose?
The White House, to John McCain. Every day Clinton stays negative is another day John McCain's cash-strapped campaign has its work done for it.
