Schumer says Clinton’s presidential aspirations are up to her


Clinton - impossible
dream?

WASHINGTON – In the wake of Tuesday’s disappointing primary performance, including a loss in North Carolina and unexpectedly narrow win in Indiana, many top Democrats are saying it is time Senator Hillary Clinton faced reality.

U.S. Senator Charles Schumer, Clinton’s New York colleague, said he continues to back her over Barrack Obama, but the decision for her to stay or leave the race is up to her.

“This is still a close race and the decisions that Hillary Clinton makes are decisions that as a supporter of hers I will abide by, I will accept.”

While it appears almost impossible for Clinton to win enough delegates, in the remaining six state primaries, she said Wednesday she is still in the race and plans to take it to the Democratic National Convention.
