This is a really difficult situation. It will be horrible for Democrats to see Rounds win with something like 35%. Even if Pressler could drop out, Weiland would probably struggle to win a head-to-head with Rounds.
Pressler as the Independent clearly has more crossover appeal, and in theory should be able to win a straight fight with Rounds. But he has no money, has been running a weird campaign, and promising to be "Obama's friend" is probably the kiss of death for his campaign.
Weiland is clearly not dropping out, and Democratic groups are getting more strongly behind him. I just can't see how Weiland or Pressler can get the upper hand here. Rounds can coast to an unimpressive minority win. A missed opportunity.
