Political insiders are saying Clinton gave it her best shot, but it wasn't enough to stand down her upstart rival, Barack Obama.
(SALEM, Ore.) - It is predicted that the Clinton Presidential campaign will see a drop in financial support after Tim Russert and Keith Olberman predicted the end of Hillary's run this week.
Russert said, "We now know who the Democratic nominee’s going to be, and no one’s going to dispute it."
His comment's measurable impact left the Clinton campaign shaken by some accounts, casting Barack Obama as the inevitable winner, "Those closest to her will give her a hardheaded analysis, and if they lay it all out, they’ll say: ‘What is the rationale? What do we say to the undeclared superdelegates tomorrow? Why do we tell them you’re staying in the race?’ And tonight, there’s no good answer for that," Russert commented.
Hillary Clinton's campaign has been extremely active and for a while, it looked like she was steadily turning around the spell Barack Obama cast on American voters so eager for a change in the White House.
But now the campaign according to most sources, will only spend money and drive the Clintons further into debt, especially when taking into account the impact statements like Russert's have on a nation that is staying glued to the developments in the race for the Democratic nomination.
The Clinton's are not calling it yet, that is for sure. Hillary's Campaign Press Secretary Phil Singer told reporters that the political death sentences are coming came from what he described as, "an opinionated group."
"The only pressure that’s being exerted on us is coming from the media covering the campaign," Singer said.
Political insiders however, are saying Hillary Clinton gave it her best shot, but it just wasn't enough to stand down her upstart rival Barack Omaba, and the numbers back the theory up.
In the end, interestingly, much of the final determination will come from Oregon's upcoming primary.
