Time for Superdelegates to Ratify Obama's Insurmountable Pledged Delegate Lead and Settle the Democratic Nomination

Robert Creamer

The handwriting is on the wall. It is virtually impossible for Hillary Clinton to overcome Barack Obama's insurmountable lead in pledged delegates.

The party's superdelegates are faced with only one choice. They must decide whether to ratify the outcome of the primaries and support the candidate with the most pledged delegates, or they must overturn the outcome of the primaries in order to give the nomination to Hillary Clinton.

They will be faced with exactly the same choice now or in June. It is much better for the party -- and for our nominee -- that they make that decision now.

Let's look at the math.

Obama currently has a 167-vote lead among pledged delegates. There are 566 pledged delegates yet to be selected. To overcome Obama's lead, Clinton must win just under 65% of all remaining pledged delegates. That just isn't going to happen.

5. Are we beginning to. ee the nascient power of a left-wing "propaganda machine"

or perhaps I should have framed it "left-wing talking points network"! lol

Just a thought, but this meme has been floated fairly broadly over the past half-week or so. I'm wondering if we're seeing the rise of some sort of organized network that can be used by the left to broadcast messages throughout the media.

What do you think?

6. I don't know, I think it's the math.

10. Clinton's strategy is:

If the math doesn't support you, just change the math!
