Today is the day that Hillary has hit 100%
If she gets 100% of South Dakota and Montana, plus 100% of the remaining superdelegates, she will win this thing with 2119 total delegates.

99% won't do it; she needs 100%.

Obama, meanwhile, currently needs 24% of all the remaining delegates to secure the nomination.

If Obama gets 2 delegates out of tomorrow's elections, Hillary will be unable to be the nominee. This would be equal to 4% of the vote in both of tomorrow's elections.

Barring a freak mass superdelegate defection from Obama, it's all over but the screaming.

2. Democonwatch's numbers say Obama needs 19%
He needs 42.5 delegates to win and they show 228.5 remaining.

Of course some of those are add ons...

5. Everyone's got different numbers
I'm sure one news site is going to call it for Obama and Hillary's going to issue a press release saying that this other site's numbers say it's not over yet. :crazy:

3. BS!! It's not over!!
She does not buy the results of Saturday's fiasco. She will appeal, through convention and court, to get FL accepted at 100% voting, and to get ALL MI delegates voting for her, because Obama was not on the ballot, therefore deserves zero.

She will not go quietly

The graceful exit she's always wanted.

22. She can't appeal. And don't expect Michigan or Florida to appeal on her behalf. They are tickled
with what they got.

38. in 04 McAuliffe warned Levin that MI would not be credentialed
if they moved the primary up.

So Levin tried it this time.

Funny how McAuliffe is ok with it this go around.

17. Quietly or not, she does not control her destiny anymore on this...
Party leaders and SuperD's will not allow the convention to turn into a brawl.

She'd done and I actually believe after all we have been through, Hillary will indeed exit quietly and in doing, endorse Obama.

20. Given Obama had the votes for a 50-50 split ...

Given Obama had the votes for a 50-50 split in Michigan and HILLARY violated the rules by participating in the Michigan election (her name was on the ballot), she would be crazy to take this to the next committee. Democrats have been patient with Hillary. If she pushes the issue, you can bet on her own superdelegates jumping out of her camp.

It's over Wednesday morning.

24. I hope you're right. Wednesday would be good ...
I hope she has the sense to be gracious in her acceptance of Obama's nomination, that she has the sense to appeal to her supporters to rally behind the nominee and not abandon the party.

27. I think her supporters can see the writing on the wall

I think her superdelegate supporters will see the writing on the wall. Once Obama gets the majority of delegates ... it's over. If Hillary continues to play chicken, I think you'll see a lot of her superdelegates jump out of her crazy bus.

40. The Clinton campaign has no standing--only the MI Dem party has standing
Since the MI Dems were satisfied with the outcome, nothing will change.

6. The news right now is schizophrenic.
Her staffers are leaving and they're staying in it to the convention. She can't win but she can still win. It's over and it's not over. :crazy:

14. 2118 + 59
to stop the "Obama stole MI" whining throughout an Obama presidency, this number from the SDs should put it in the lockbox.

18. Exactly -- just getting 2119 isn't going to do it for her; he's got to get a decent margin
so she'll SHUT HER PIEHOLE once and for all (along with Typhoon
Terry McAwful and Icky Harold).

36. He only got 29.5 delegates there, so it would be more like 2118 + 30

So who knows how she thinks she can win.
