Today is super Tuesday and many believe the nomination for the Democratitc party will be a lot clearer after tonight. Others (Clinton supporters) see tonight as a turning point, by no means the end of Hillary's campaign. Hill-rod is expecting a comeback that will give her the momentum she needs to beat Obama and carry the nomination. Maybe she will win 3/4 tonight and prolong all of this. What would you say though if I told you Hill-dawg could win the next 16 elections and still not have enough delegates to overtake Obama? Using Slate.com's delegate calculator one can see that this is in fact the case. Should Clinton step down after tonight if she gets 1/4? Say only Ohio. Should she just drop out anyway? Many say she should and unify the party. I for one find this nomination contest to be a great exercise in our democratic process but it does seem that Obama-tron has taken a very strong lead. It appears this could be a very interesting display of American democracy.
