You're right. She has no chance of catching him. By staying in the race, she proves she is either
crazed or evil : Crazed if she thinks she can win, evil if she realises she can't and stays in
anyway to spite Obama.
For her to win outright, she would need to win an unimaginable 94 percent of the remaining
delegates. Obama would need to win 77 percent, which is not going to happen, either.
The deadlock brings the race back to superdelegates, who flocked to Clinton early on but flowed to
Obama during his 11-state winning streak. He cut Clinton's lead to about 40 superdelegates, from
more than 100. And he picked up two new superdelegates yesterday.
About 350 are still uncommitted - they could hold the fate of the contest in their hands.
Clinton has claimed 242 superdelegates to Obama's 207.
Her win in PA last night was a big one for her. That's a dangerous attitude to take. It's what
makes people stay home on election day thinking their individual votes won't count.
After all, Bush became president in 2000 without winning the election
