Remember Bobby Kennedy? If Clinton quits now she loses her chance as the only democratic candidate if Obama is assassinated.

Even though she apologized for it, she probably still means it.
you know...........**** if i know. really to me she lost all credibility as someone who gives a **** about anything but her career when she refused to run in 04. now she's just coming off as a desperate and dellusional hack who talks out her ass...with her husband singing along. however although i never liked her at all, i disagree with you there. since its just my speculation against yours though, i guess thats that.

she figured it would be a sure win in 08. rather than take a chance and throw her hat in, she consciously chose to sit back and HOPE for another 4 years of bush/cheney.
presidents get elected after losing previous elections. there was no excuse for not running.

For a conspiracy theory to hold much water, you at least have to have someone to blame. Mr. Clinton apparently does not. Sometimes I think Bill has become the bigger threat to the democrat party.
obama now with 1978 delegates total.
47 needed
even with the florida delegates she's doomed, so she also factors in the michigan primaries of which obama was not on the ballot (because he was busy abiding by dnc rules). then factor in clinton's assumption that people who voted for obama are regretting it now, and the big evil conspiracy to bully superdelegates. conclusion of course is that clinton wins wins WINS!
i can see a new political term coming from this primary season: "clinton math"
