I'd say that perseverance, dedication and determination are all good traits, and I don't see why politicians should not have them.

Had Clinton quit the race after Super Tuesday, and blamed it on sexism, she'd have been a spoiled brat. Now, she's simply showing she's a spirited fighter, who will go against the odds when necessary. Sure, she'll lose this one, but at least she'll go down fighting.

As for hurting the party's chances... not likely. Once Obama has the nomination, Clinton will undoubtedly fully support him. That should help in bringing in the votes of those who supported Clinton over Obama.
