Misguided Praise

Heard a CNN report that a superdelegate, previously neutral but about to declare for Barack Obama, express admiration for Hillary Clinton's "true grit" in staying in the race despite Barack Obama's insurmountable lead. This admiration is misplaced and misguided. At some point, the Clintons have to decide: Is this race about the future of the Democratic Party or about their unbridled ambition? The tone and tenor of the Clinton campaign, particularly in the last few weeks, suggest that it's more of the latter.
