More BS at Salon
who still trails Obama in pledged delegates, mathematic possibility and endorsements by major musical acts
Notice how the crucial information is spun by that last dig, as if all this stuff is ephemeral, and doesn't really mean anything substatial for Obama.
She won by less than 10 points. She hasn't won the same number of votes, so she isn't in much of a position to win the nomination. It's a long shot for her, at best.
Notice, too, that any victory on Obama's part is always greeted by somber articles about the difficulty of the future. When Hillary wins, we get these bright, candy-colored snap shots and euphoric cries of her great achievement.
Salon is embarrassingly full of it.
