4. Obama has his eye on the prize

and doesn't let hilary's faux firewalls distract him.

5. Obama is running his campaign like a general

Hillary is stuck looking like Colonel Custer.

6. As Dandy Don Meridith used to sing

on Monday Night football, Turn out the lights, the parties over. Face it Clinton supporters, it is over. Unite our party and back Barack for a win in November.

7. Hillary is copying from Rove's playbook

"If I lose, I win. The media will say I won. Nothing to see
here, move along".

10. The negation of Firewall Tuesday ain't done yet.

MS has 33 delegates up for grabs. Your totals show only 28 of them. That means there is still 5 left unaccounted for.

12. They will probably split

3 for Obama and 2 to Clinton based on the vote %.

If you ass the 2 WY delegate net pickup in the equation, it makes for an Obama pickup of 3 in the past 8 days. Obama's lead is somewhere around 160 pledged delegates. Hillary would need to win PA to cut the lead to 100. After that she still faces pretty uphill battles in at least 5/9 contests, including delegate-rich NC.
