The Reality of the Numbers
From Obama's campaign manager, David Plouffe, on Hillary's chances of securing the nomination:
"The only way she could do it is by winning most of the rest of the contests by 25 to 30 points. Even the most creative math really does not get her, ever, back to even in terms of pledged delegates."
All that's left is the vote-counting.
The Hillary camp knows the hard truth of these numbers as much as anyone else. So, unless the Clintons plan on taking the Democratic party down with them, then she should bow out sooner rather than later. My guess is that we'll see a concession after the Ohio and Texas races.
