Breaking News!!! Obama still leading in the delegate count
his lead of 150+/- has been dealt the severe blow of 14-16???

There are also dozens of Super delegates waiting in the wings to committ to him in the next few days, who were only waiting to see if Hillary could mount a tremendous comeback. Not only is she broke and barely able to continue but she is not closing the gap as she heads into Indiana and North Carolina.

Nice play Hillary but today was like kicking a field goal as time ran out in a 27-14 game. It looked purdy but didnt count for anything.

Hillary needed 65% per cent of the vote to get enough pledged delegates to make PA REALLY matter to the superdelegates. And even that would have put her only one tenth of the way home: She will now need a MINIMUM of 65% of the vote in ALL of the remaining contests. Obama, on the other hand, accomplished his mission: pulling in the 45% he needed to prevent Hillary from pulling in the 65% SHE needed! She got the win, but he got the victory!

:headbang:
