Poblano over at Daily Kos pointed out that it's a "momentumless primary," which is really weird, but it sort of makes sense given the historic nature of each candidacy.

In that case at this point you can go to bed with the knowledge that Obama 'won' the expectations game tonight. In a sense this is no more fair than the Hillary 'win' in PA - i.e. we're basically getting what you'd expect from these two states given their respective demographics, but  it's the playing up of the PA 'triumph' that's boomeranging on Clinton. Given that she should have dropped out after the Ohio and Texas primaries and not spent all this time savaging the inevitable Dem nominee, I'm not too sympathetic anyways. Though the one silver lining is that the timing of the Wright affair was better than it would have been if it had come in September or October.

Go to bed?

We've got the GAME on!

;-)

Slow motion to Denver, I'm afraid.  Clinton can't catch-up in pledged delegates and Obama can't put her away.  

IF O goes on to win in Indiana we may see a movement in PLEO delegates over the next few days.  

Still nothing from Gary, and those Indy suburbs are still not reporting 55-65% of precincts.

I think the plan is to stage a coup with the Rules Committee (or whatever it's called) which will seat Florida etc and then crown her empress of the entire world.

The Committee is packed full of Clinton people. Unfortunately the rest of the convention will try to lynch them, so it's possibly not a bullet-proof strategy.

Even so - Clinton looks like she won't stop until someone forces her to. She doesn't care about the party, she doesn't care about the voters, she only cares about being empress of the entire world.

She's looking more and more like Bush, only without the affability.  

Right.  Essentially what they do is follow certain precincts that give them a model of the vote.  A pretty good one, too.  It's very odd that we might -- again, I think it's still doubtful in IN -- have two races in this primary called or nearly called, and then overturned.

That goes for both Obama and Clinton people, in fairness, although some of the ex-Reps who've joined the DLC Wing of the party reveal their past a little too easily for me.

It's silly season.  People are tired and frustrated.  Understandably, I think.  This has been a long primary.  But I think it was Jeff Toobin at CNN who pointed out that we saw a similar divide between Bush and McCain in 2000.  McCainiacs said they'd only vote for the Stray Cock Express.  Except they came around to vote for Junior.

Same thing will happen here.  Worst-case scenario is Obama winds up being forced to put her on the ticket, in which case Bubba goes on a very long vacation to a place where he can do whatever it is he does with his spare time.  And Hillary then gets to do a back and forth between Ohio and Florida for the next five months.

I think that's unlikely to be needed anyway, and that it should be avoided if at all possible given the much better choices for Veep, but the option is always there.

They can't turn their results in until Daley certifies them with enough dead people to get O over the top. ;)  Ask poemless.  She's the Chicagoan here.

elitist!

The 38,772 separation is a tall order but still just doable.  It all depends on how the rest of the county votes as the population of Gary proper is about 102,000.
