What’s Hillary waiting for?

Perhaps a miracle. Because however she wants to jumble the present figures, there’s no chance she’ll have enough number of delegates to win this contest.

With Obama having at present 1,865 pledged delegates and Hillary only 1,697 and leaving just 217 unpledged delegates out there, chances are very strong that this race should be over any moment now.

If we split the unpledged delegates in half (217) that will give Obama 1,865 + 108 making a total of 1,973. Hillary would wind up with 1697+109= 1,806

With 2,025 needed to win neither candidate will reach the mark.

Now, anyone in the Democratic Party knows that this scenario won’t happen, simply because the party needs to consolidate behind one person and one person only. Doing it otherwise could signify a suicidal move for all Democrats.

That said, Most of the Super delegates, if not all, will rush to support Obama, among other reasons, besides the numbers stated, because he received the most popular vote so far.

Hillary should face-off her campaign and concede with honor instead of trying to draw blood from the party. If she does that and concentrates on moving all those voters who supported her to back Obama, the next general election in November should be a walk in the park for the Democratic Party.
