Hillary Clinton Will “Stay the Course” in Race for Democratic Nomination
Despite dwindling odds, the Clinton Campaign is determined to stick to the end. She vows that she will fight Barack Obama to the end. As more super-delegates and endorsements roll out, she vows to keep fighting. James Carville, her campaign advisor, bashes the Obama Campaign. Her “donors” at the request of the Clinton campaign, threaten to boycott the November election unless the nominee is anyone other than Hillary. This is how you split the party and let John McCain win. Send her an email to Hillary@HillaryClinton.com and tell her what you think!

HAMMOND, Ind. - If Hillary Rodham Clinton is feeling heat from pundits and party elders to quit the race and back Barack Obama, you’d never know it from her crowds, energy level and upbeat demeanor on the campaign trail.
“There are millions of reasons to continue this race: people in Pennsylvania, Indiana and North Carolina, and all of the contests yet to come,” Clinton told reporters Friday. “This is a very close race and clearly I believe strongly that everyone should have their voices heard and their votes counted.”
The former first lady weathered a two-pronged blow Friday, with influential Pennsylvania Sen. Bob Casey Jr. endorsing Obama and another Senate colleague, Vermont Democrat Patrick Leahy, urging her to step aside. But to hear Clinton tell it, it was just another day in an epic primary battle whose result is still not known.
“I believe a spirited contest is good for the Democratic Party and will strengthen the eventual nominee,” she said. “We will have a united party behind whomever that nominee is. … I look forward to campaigning over the next several months.”
Traveling across Indiana, the former first lady was greeted by large, enthusiastic audiences who roared their approval at her proposals to help fix the state’s economic challenges.
At events here and in North Carolina on Thursday, Clinton raised the issue of whether she should quit the race, only to have it firmly batted down by her supporters.
“There are some people who are saying, you know, we really ought to end this primary, we just ought to shut it down,” she said in Mishawaka, Ind., drawing cries of “No, no!” inside a packed gymnasium.
But as the odds continue to get shorter and she continues to send out her attack dogs. Click here to read more about the Clintons.
