32. That would be a disaster...
We can't win in November without Clinton supporters on board. 40% are already wary of Obama - him forcing her out would probably double that number. What we need is unity, regardless of what happens she can't win.

So what is to gain by forcing someone who cannot win out, other than to look like a bully? Frankly, Hillary owes it to everyone who has stood by her all these months and given her money to see this thing through. Trying to stop that would not just be harmful, it would be undemocratic.

Obama has the nomination. There's nothing good to come from needlessly antagonizing Clinton supporters further.
