The Clintons are not quitters. They are scrappy. They are persistent. Strategic. And they know that on a dime the political landscape can change given a proper scandal. That's why I think it has been so hard for Hillary to concede the race. To do so means she has to admit defeat. She has to quit.
That's why I think the announcement that Hillary plans to drop out of the Democratic presidential race this weekend and throw her support behind Barack Obama has been so long in coming. Apparently, top Democratic Senators strongly urged her to drop out after her opponent clinched the nomination with an avalanche of superdelegates Tuesday.
Even with the handwriting so clearly on the wall, I'm sure she still had hope. After all, the Clintons are not quitters.
