Obama has netted +28 delegates this week. Hillary won't net half that many tonight.
Watch the spin.

Nothing changes after tonight, except that HIllary will be that much farther from any chance of catching Obama.

He picked up 28 Superdelegates this week, 3 switching from the Presumptive Loser, Hillary Clinton. She netted 1 superdelegate and lost one Pledged Delegate this week.

Of the 28 delegates up for grabs tonight, she will, at her best net +12, that's an unlikely 70% win.

The game doesn't change. Ignore the Delusional Egoist.

2. If there are 28 delegates up for grabs and she wins 70%
how does she only get 12?

3. That is what CNN's delegate counter told me. 20-Hillary, 8-Obama.

5. Nets 12
She'll be up 12 with West Virginia. But when you factor in Obama's supers, she's actually further behind.

13. MSNBC's Chuck Todd says HRC nets only 10 unltess she gets to 75% of the vote
or more.

It'll be 19 for Clinton, 9 for Obama. Not even couning SDs that may declare for Obama by morning, Obama will get within 142 delegates of the 2025 target tonight.

10. If I were the Clinton campaign, I'd have some SDs ready to announce tomorrow...
Of course, I'm betting the Obama campaign has some of their own to announce tomorrow.

14. I don't see her but pulling in 10 (19-9)
4-2 in each of the 3 CDs
5-2 in Addon Pledged
2-1 in PLEO

WV SDs are 3:2 for HRC with 6 undeclared.

16. The sands of the hour glass....
are running low....

The way I see it, Hillary only has about 1 week left. That's it. The money's run out, the support has run out, and TIME has run out.

18. Any idea of SDs set to come out backing Obama, and anytime
soon? I'd love to see a BIG drip instead of this steady trickle, welcome though each of them is...

20. Nothing has really changed.
According to Obama's campaign, the number of superdelegates on his side 282. The latest estimate of Hillary Rodham Clinton's superdelegate score: 271.

This would be Clinton's perfect time to bow out on a high note, gracefully.

21. We'll see. I've been gracious too many times to believe it will happen now.
But, I hope it does. She has got to go.
