Hello, Hello. She's long since stopped positioning herself for actually winning the nomination. She wants some influence is all. Bill is campaigning for her to be Obama's running mate, but she is merely looking to have some pull. She knows she's lost the nom, and she'll be dropping out soon after tomorrow's final primaries.
That said, her campaign is still gunning for the long-shot chance that her very valid argument will work ... namely that she wins far bigger than Obama in the states that matter for the electoral college win of the presidency. The superdelegates won't have the spine to do their job and pick the more strategic candidate. Instead they will rubber-stamp the choice of the voters. Nice ... but not their purpose.
Unbelievably, McCain is running very strongly against Obama. A very good argument can be made that Hillary is the stronger presidential candidate.
All a hill of beans. Soon after tomorrow, she will be out and Obama will be the Democratic Nominee. It should have been a cake walk from there to the presidency against the likes of John McCain. But that's not going to be the case.
