So everyone knows this is over but Hillary and Bill. Maybe Chelasea will tell her mom she is starting to look desperate. Her only argument is that she was tough in big states with white men. Failing to dominate in the last 2 big states kinda wipes out that argument.  Super D's will flock to Obama next week and end this thing. She has no mathematical way to get any closer than she is now, so there is no reason to wait, except to let her torture OBAMA, and that's looking totally suicidal, since it is now impossible for her to win with out looking like she's cheating.

Here is what the TV pundits are too dumb to know. When all these states jerrymander, I mean Redistrict, they divide up the black population, based on expecrting about 35% black turnout max in a presidential year. There are dozens if not hundreds of house districts that could swing democrat if Barak is getting 50 or 60% turnout. Could be huge in some state legislatures as well.  Supers are very aware that Barak will help them elect a senator or 2 and maybe a governor. I think they gave Hillary the benefiit of the doubt. Now only an idiot would give her money. Its over.

Or at least it better be.

Isn't it fun to watch the Clintons spin.  Lanny Davis keeps repeating Indiana is a state Obama expected to win. Really? Realclearpolitics.com poll of polLs had him down 7% April 4th.  

Its starting to look really desperate.  Will the MSM notice? And you Limbiciles, what chaos do you have in store?

Hillary has cancelled her appearances for May 7th. Will FOTD be just 5 days off from his prediction The Clintons will be done very soon? On to Denver and November!

The whole world are watching closely this election. Far greater than any other in our history.

Pundits declare the race over

International Herald Tribune:

"Pundits Declare the Race Over" The moment came shortly after midnight Eastern time, captured in a devastatingly declarative statement from Tim Russert of NBC News: "We now know who the Democratic nominee's going to be, and no one's going to dispute it," he said on MSNBC. "Those closest to her will give her a hard-headed analysis, and if they lay it all out, they'll say: 'What is the rationale? What do we say to the undeclared super delegates tomorrow? Why do we tell them you're staying in the race?' And tonight, there's no good answer for that."

Correct!  It is over for her, however, until the debates, your candidate has more to fear from her than from the Republicans.

Hillary's "No Candidate Left Alive" campaign will go all the way to the convention where she will bring it to the floor.  By that time, her machine will have done enough damage to put her in a position to beat McCain in 2012.  

It has nothing to do with the party, it is all about her now.  She will continue to loan her campaign money to get it done.  She is buying millions of dollars in media even today after she has effectively been shut out of the race.
When attacked by a mob of clowns, always go for the juggler.

Well, we will have to disagree on that.

My thinking is Billary are waiting to negotiate with Obama on his administration positions. This will take months of backroom discussions on "behalf of the party" between the candidates and their aids.

Mention of Wes Clarke, a strong Clinton ally, as veep to help keep their foot in the door. If I were Obama I would say "thanks but no thanks."

But the idea she will be loved at 64 is silly. Billary shot their wad together this time. Besides, in 4 years there will be some rising young republican to sweep everyone off their feet.

ABC News has learned that David Bonior, the campaign manager for the 2008 presidential race of Sen. John Edwards, D-NC, will endorse Sen. Barack Obama, D-Illinois, today. Bonior, a former Michigan congressman, was once the second highest ranking Democrat in the House, and is influential with labor unions.
