Ignore the Death Throes.... the only numbers you need to know

[scheming daemons]

Total Delegates: Obama 1979, Clinton 1781 (Obama +198)

Note: Obama needs only 46 more delegates


Super Delegates: Obama 320, Clinton 282

Note: Since Feb 5th, Obama leads 150 to 22.


Pledged Delegates: Obama 1659, Clinton 1499

Note: Only 86 pledged delegates remain. Obama has won the pledged delegates.



The Clinton supporters are getting more shrill and more vile every day in here, posting swiftboat-style OPs and deluding themselves into thinking that Saturday matters.


The DNC, based on their own rules, has no power to give Florida and Michigan more than 50% of their delegates. There is literally absolutely nothing the rules committee can do to overcome that.


Nothing that happens Saturday will change the race.

Nothing that happens Sunday in Puerto Rico will change the race.

Nothing that happens Tuesday in South Dakota and Montana will change the race.


The only way that Hillary Clinton can become the nominee now is if her "assassination wish" comes true.

The bottom line is, for the hard-core Clinton supporters in DU that remain, that "wish" is all they've got left.



46 more delegates to 2026.



Eye on McCain, folks.

6. For idiots like you that can't add, it needs to be repeated often.

7. Ah, yes, the well-worn ...

... "they must be worried" meme.

Posting about Obama's numbers serves two purposes:

(a) gives his supporters a chance to share and discuss the good news.
(b) might wake some people up to the fact that Hillary has lost this race, and nothing is going to change that.
