I agree with all of you. Hobbes remained present so he could stay long enough to see Azazel die. And he could have left; I'm sure he thought of that, but realized he had nothing left to go back for, to live for. His brother was dead, he was divorced, plus the many others killed by Azazel. He realized he would have no alibi for the murders which he was the suspect for. Remember Azazel (in Jonesy's body) indicated he was going to enter Hobbes and commit more murders to frame Hobbes for. All that would have remained for Hobbes, had he left was a long prison sentence, or the rest of his life as a fugitive, since there'd be no way to prove he didn't commit the murders. So instead he poisoned himself, to die in a slow, subtle way. He didn't kill himself instantly (by shooting himself), because he wanted to stay alive long enough to see Azazel die, plus he wanted to taunt Azazel too, so he'd know what the plan was, to see Azazel feel fear. Once Jonesy died, Azazel would need another host, and obviously only Hobbes would be available in such a lonely area. Plus, if he'd gotten in the car and drove off right then, there'd have still been the cat for Azazel to possess, once Jonesy died of his wound. (Hobbs leaving wouldn't have been nearly as dramatic.) And if Hobbes had drove off immediately upon shooting Jonesy in the head, Azazel probably could have caught up with the car, and entered it easily, and Hobbes. Remember in the beginning Azazel easily passed through the wall of a sealed gas chamber, and into the executioner. As for the cat, Hobbes simply didn't know a cat was present.

If there's a cat, there's a bird, there's a bug, there's a hibernating toad, there's a bacterium. We're surrounded by life. So if a cat's an OK host, the spirit has no shortage of possible hosts within a meter at any time.

Perhaps the spirit just needs a consciousness, also I doubt the spirit will just 'die', more likely just remain dormant until someone gets close enough.
So Hobbes realistically stood no chance of beating this evil angel.
