Why it will be over May 20th
The pledged delegate lead will go to Obama on May 20th
either in Kentucky or Oregon.

After that he will need about 100 Super Delegates.

There are press reports that quote unnamed sources that say 120 Super Delegates leaning to Obama will move at that time or very shortly thereafter.

Given that Obama added 10 yesterday I would guess that is an accurate picture.

Over by Oregon.

The next day May 21 will be a difficult day for Clinton as she has to release her fund raising for April - it will reveal the campaign lied about $ 10 million day and the true nature of Clinton campaign finances will be there for all the SDs to see. I predict Senator Clinton will 'suspend' her race after her victory in Kentucky, and before Oregon's vote is announced - Oregon votes by mail so there is no same day impact on Oregon voters.
