Within 48 Hours, About 30 Super-delegates Will Endorse Obama?

[tekisui]

Anyone other than Zogby as a source saying this?

(snip)

Where do we go from here? My understanding is that probably today, but certainly within 48 hours, about 30 super-delegates will endorse Mr Obama. That should give him further momentum.

John Zogby: 'there is no chance' Clinton can win

Mathematically, this will widen the gap between him and Mrs Clinton. He has a bigger share of the popular vote, more pledged delegates, and will now overtake her in terms of super-delegates too.

I honestly believe that she will find a way to get out of the race before the next primaries - so as to not hurt her future and to not be blamed for hurting Mr Obama and his chances in the general election.

Here are the reasons:

* There really is no mathematical chance for her to win
* Her campaign is virtually out of money - and it will be difficult for her to raise significant amounts of money after last night
* Not enough happened last night to give her any hope, so continuing would only give the appearance of wanting to damage Mr Obama

Another problem she faces is that she is not perceived as a strong general election contender, because of her high negative poll ratings.

I have no evidence that she will throw in the towel, or when she will. She is a Clinton and the Clintons do not have the word "lose" in their playbook - but these are the things I am hearing from supporters on both sides.

1. Obama is holding back

He doesn't want to appear to be pushing her out. He wants her to make that decision on her own. Today there will probably be another 5-10.

By Tuesday it will have reached that.

2. She will not stop until The Democratic Nominee is chosen, period

Right now that requires a number larger, Im not sure what it is now, but larger than 2025. It is no longer the number IF they seat MI as I expect they will.

Shes not going to budge until the Nom number is met, then she cuts loose with her announcement to that she is obligated in good conscience to "take back the democratic party" from the marauding elitist, which have seized control and she announces the NEW Democratic party and that the DLC announces her as the Nominee of the NEW Democratic party.

For those that say she wont, what does she have to lose, she has already shown she will do anything, how would that be any worse?

5. I hope you are wrong.

But I suspect you are right.

The DLC is NOT going to let their control
slip without pulling every trick in the book.

Control of the United States is AT STAKE.

The corporations will accept corporate controlled
dem factions taking over, but NOT a populist
nominee like Obama.

OVER 1.5 million individual contributors!

They are at Code Red!

4. I had to search to see who Kreskin was.

That's about as good as Zogby.

6. I was just eating my cereal....

Do you see something wrong with his prediction?

Would you still stand behind HC if it played out
along those lines?
