Regarding the argument that Hillary can't win by pure mathematics

[StrongBad]

What do you think the odds are that tonight's win's will be spun in future news cycles in such a way that it ends up eroding Obama's lead in his upcoming "safe states"?

Because if this is a possible scenario one can't effectively say it's over even in terms of pure math.

1. He can't get there, wither...the RULES apply to both sides...

he needs 2025, and he can't get there either.

2. Correct.

[joshcryer]

8. Yep, both of them have to go to the DNC and make persuasive arguments.

Who will be more persuasive?

3. MO

Momentum's a bitch, ain't it?

6. Clinton can win all the remaining contest in the way she did tonight, and she will still be behind.

she needs blow outs...

[joshcryer]

9. She actually can't win the "pledged delegates" without a massive blowout.

An unrealistic blowout.

4. Not enough

time to erode Wyoming (4 days from now) and no way he loses Mississippi. After the next two election he then has the momentum back

[gristy]

I see close races in each state from here on out

It's going to be a struggle for both camps. But Obama has the lead, and unless he mis-steps, it looks like he will indeed be our candidate.

[Seen the light]

5. You think Clinton has a chance in Mississippi, Wyoming, North Carolina,

Indiana, Guam, Montana, Oregon, or South Dakota?

:rofl:

[DUyellow]

7. there is no way.

10. The Obama campaign's projections have been uncannily accurate...

They predicted months ago that they would lose Ohio and TX by almost exactly the margins that they did lose. They predicted the 12 straight victories (except for Maine). I would tend to have faith in their projections--according to whhich they will be well ahead even after losing PA.

11. You are right ~ that is what they said

I had forgotten that part.

I can go to sleep now. :)
