Safe to say the Clinton Campaign has been fearing the big shots in her party calling for her to step aside. Well, it may have just begun.
BURLINGTON, Vt. (AP) -- Senator Patrick Leahy is suggesting it's
time for Hillary Rodham Clinton to admit defeat in her presidential
bid.
The Vermont Democrat says Clinton "has every right, but not a
very good reason" to remain a candidate. He says it's not in the
interests of a Democrats for Clinton to draw out the Democratic
nomination battle.
Leahy has endorsed Barack Obama for president, and he says
Obama's lead appears insurmountable.
The Senate Judiciary Committee chairman told Vermont Public
Radio that Clinton ought to withdraw and back Obama. But in a
statement today he also says that it's a decision only Clinton can
make.
Pennsylvania Democrats vote next. There are 158 delegates at
stake in the April 22nd primary and recent polls show her with a
lead there.
