Welp, looks like my sub-40% prediction is coming true for Hillary in the Potomac Primary
and I suggested that, if that occur, she should likely drop out.

She looks not to be doing that, but instead to drag this out a few more weeks (where she will continue to be embarrassed). Hillary, you are a classy lady, please step down.

6. Sleep tight.
Both are halway to 2,025 (pretty much).

It's basically even up on the scoreboard.

Unless you count pledged superdelegates (advantage Clinton).

Or you count current momentum (advantage Obama).

It makes no sense to quit.

3. How many delegates does having over 60 give Obama?
I mean, he gets some sort of bonus if he gets over 60 and she gets under 40, right

5. No, she should stay in. All states should be able to vote in this tight election.
Voters have too much invested to take the choice away this soon (Obama supporter here).

7. She is a fighter and she owes it to her supporters to fight to finish line.
If she loses, at least she won't be labeled a "quitter."

8. perhaps
but what good does it do to have her keep sucking up 35-40% of the vote/delegates and then it coming down to Superdelegates making the pick? Even if they go for the candidate with the most states, most votes, most delegates, it will be a big attack point for the Republicans in the GE.
