Assuming about an even split in delegates over the remaining contests, in order to win Obama needs about 40% of the remaining super delegates to get to the magic 2,025 number.
Well, considering that Obama's damn close to having 50% of the superdelegates who have declared a preference, and considering that the majority of Hillary's superdels declared their support for her before the primary really began in earnest, and considering that Hillary's apparently having trouble finding superdels who will take a meeting with her today, I don't think we need to worry about Obama's efforts in that department, do you?
And chew on these numbers, if the race was winner take all as the electoral college is and as another organization with some common sense runs their primaries, Clinton would be beating Obama by 1,917 delegates to 1,606.
And if I had a magic ring, I'd be Green Lantern. What's your point?
I realize that the only thing that pro-Hillary/anti-Obama folks have to hold onto right now is a vision of an alternate earth where the circumstances were even more stacked in Hillary's favor than they were at the start of this primary. But that sort of fantasizing about an impossible world makes you look even more out of touch with reality than Hillary herself. And, really, that's saying something.
