Wrapping It Up
It's kind of funny that the Obama fans in the blogosphere were the ones worried about the superdelegates deciding the nomination in favor of Hillary instead of "the people," when in reality they're deciding it for Obama. Which is their right, and considering that it's completely within the DNC rules and there's no "real math" that ought to be stopping them, I say good. There's certainly no additional information that they need. According to Obama's tabulations, he's 160 delegates from clinching the nomination.
Clinton is reminding me of that Hall of Famer who plays just one season too long - see Babe Ruth for the Boston Braves, or Willie Mays with the Mets - but she's earned the right to go out on her own terms.
