    I'm not a supporter of hers but why wouldn't she hang on through PA?  From her POV, if Obama does something really dumb she's right there.  In case it isn't clear, she's running for her not us.

      She can wait until after Penn if she wants, but she can't win if she stays in the race.  Oddly enough, her only path to the nomination is to suspend.

      or thereabouts.  If she does this then maybe the chorus won't grow for those tax returns.  They don't want or need to go through that for a losing cause.

        There's a reason they haven't released the Clinton tax returns for 2001-2006: They really don't want to (probably some stuff in there pretty difficult to defend or explain), and are holding off until they're sure they need to. Don't hold your breath for April 15th, however... I can see them stalling with some lame excuse, and going through the PA primary.

    •  Well... (0+ / 0-)

      they are giving every signal that there is no conciliation.  

      HRC relishes looking like she's on the ropes.  Her credibility has taken severe hits and her kitchen sink strategy has only served to "sink" her further...however, she loves being presented as being on the ropes.

      Now for sure, some of this is bluff.  But I think the signal is quite clear for the nonce.  With the change in narrative and the Bosnia story underpinning her lies, it is quite possible that she'll be humiliated by keeping going forward...but I think her supporters think she's a fighter and she's giving 'em what they want.
