So it comes as no surprise that she's planning to concede to Obama this Saturday--it's the only professional looking thing to do, obviously (emphasis on the "looking"). But that concession is nothing more than that--an appearance. IN reality, while her public statements will reflect a desire for party unification, covertly, she'll be doing whatever it takes to help McCain.

Should be obvious--if she can make Obama lose against McCain, it will bolster the notion that he was the wrong choice to win the nomination, and that she would've been the strongest candidate--a resounding "I told you so!" message. And with that idea imprinted into the soul of the Democratic Party, hwo could they not automatically nominate her in 2012 to run against McCain?

Hillary Clinton--the non-stop calculator (albeit an old one )
