Neither candidate now has enough delegates to clinch the nomination, and the Florida and Michigan situation is, at this moment, still unresolved. Hillary Clinton almost certainly can't win, but will she withdraw? There's nothing in her past to suggest graceful acquiescence to the inevitable, though she could surprise us. The Clintons seem to have no reason to live other than to run and seek power; their whole relationship, and whole lives, have been dedicated to this end. They can't 'go home' because there's nothing to go home to. This life of seeking power is all they have. It's sad, actually. The primaries are ending, but will the nomination battle?

Hillary Clinton almost certainly can’t win, but will she withdraw? There’s nothing in her past to suggest graceful acquiescence to the inevitable, though she could surprise us. The Clintons seem to have no reason to live other than to run and seek power; their whole relationship, and whole lives, have been dedicated to this end. They can’t ‘go home’ because there’s nothing to go home to. This life of seeking power is all they have. It’s sad, actually.
