anyway you crunch the delegate numbers, she's still behind. she has to win 62% of the remaining delegates to take the lead. yet another delegate game.
but she's saying that any president who wins the general election wins ohio. that won't happen this time because it seems most of ohio isn't ready for a black president. ohio will lose it's bellwether status.
either way you look at it, get ready for the kitchen sink plumbing and the rest of the house to come flying.
the counts:
obama has 202 and clinton 241, according to the nyt's new superdelegate tracker. 256 are up for grabs. here's the delegate count (texas caucus still being counted) to date (nyt):
obama
march 4 win: 88
current delegates: 1,275
current supers: 202
obama total: 1,477
clinton
March 4 win: 115
current delegates: 1,150
current supers: 241
cllinton total: 1,391
salon: But what exactly did Clinton gain with her extraordinary win? The Democratic race has come down to a contest of numbers versus narrative. The numbers are on Barack Obama's side. Clinton won three of four primary contests but did little, or perhaps nothing, to eat into Obama's pledged-delegate lead of more than 100. Barring a cataclysmic event, Clinton isn't going to take the delegate lead from Obama, which means he can still make the case that he is the candidate of the people.
