If Sanders wins Super Tuesday, does Hillary have the obligation to withdraw? Conversely, does Sanders have that same obligation?

No. They have an "obligation" to run their election until they are eliminated mathematically.
Why are people trying to get the Democrats to drop out at the first possible opportunity, but were willing to jack off about 100 Republicans polling at 5% for months? Why aren't there dozens of polls demanding Cruz drop out? Or even the retarded Ben Carson?

I think you will find that after Super Tuesday there won't be more than 2 Republicans, and if the gap is wide enough, the loser should do the same.

That will only be due to the GOP trying to find a way to beat Trump. The current theory is that too many candidates is splitting the anti-Trump vote so if only one non-Trump candidate is left they may be able to beat him. I am not sure if this is how it will play out, but that is what I think will happen after Super Tuesday.

Looking at the numbers, I would say that's not going to be an issue. Trump is commanding the board right now with double digit leads, and the polling has been much more accurate than it has on the Democratic side.
I think you will find more accurate polling on the "D" side now that the media has gone from "real challenger Bernie Sanders" to "He would need a miracle".

The answer is no. It's too close, so they'll keep chugging on till the end. Whoever wins the popular vote has a case to make to get the superdelegates.
