Many Democrats really want Hillary Clinton to quit the presidential race and give up her dreams at taking back the White House for the Clintons and for the Democratic Party. But after a nail-bighting victory in Indiana and a blowout loss in North Carolina, Hillary Clinton reiterated on Wednesday that she will not quit the race and she has vowed to push forward.

Is it pointless? According to sources she is having a very difficult morning after Indiana and North Carolina and Matt Drudge is reporting that it is so bad that she is even having trouble finding Superdelegates that are willing to meet with her to discuss her reasons for staying in the race. The short item cites an unnamed insider that says, "No one wants to see her today".

Clinton has long maintained that she will continue to fight into June but many are privately telling her that she has no chance to capture the nomination for president for the Democratic Party. The writing is on the wall, so to speak, but Hillary either won't or can't read it.
Is it over for Hillary? It would appear so. She needed a good victory in Indiana and a tough loss in North Carolina and she didn't get either. Will she bow out gracefully or take this thing, and perhaps the party, down with her?
