Now, just in case the former First Lady forgot how that election actually turned out, let me remind her: John Kerry wound up losing to George Bush 286 to 251 (with one elector casting their ballot for John Edwards). Sen. Clinton should also remember that her husband was running THIRD in national polling at this point in 1992, trailing the first President Bush and Ross Perot with a measly 26% of the vote.
Let's be clear: With such high negatives it is extremely unlikely that Sen. Clinton would be able to muster enough electoral votes to win the White House; and if she did, I have a hunch that victory would be paper thin and without the popular vote.
It's time to for Sen. Clinton to fade into the background. After the Rules Committee to the Democratic Convention issue their ruling on Florida and Michigan on Saturday, and after the last three primaries of the season take place on Tuesday, it will be extremely important for the super-delegates to put Clinton's nomination to bed. Barack Obama is the nominee of the party and efforts by the Clinton camp to continue to fight their losing battle should be ignored out-right in hopes that she will just go away.
