But in the end she will have to prove she has gained delegates, which will be hard. She might have won enough to stop the bleeding. A little anyway.

After this her only real chance to make any gains is Pennsylvania. And even then, It would be hard for her to pull of a lead large enough to swing things her way.

Her Ohio lead has trickled down to 12%. 141 * 12% = ~ 17 Delegate gain

I see things as very neck-and-neck still. Not sure where Steven et al get the whole "why doesn't she just withdraw" thing.

She won 2 states no one thought she would. That's all that matters - to the 10 states left, to the superdelegates, to the undecideds.

nope, he's changed his mind in 4 hours:

As it stands right now Hillary has gained 1+17+5-8 or about an overall gain of 15. Far form a landslide. For someone who had much higher expectations its pretty much a failure.

She is going to spin this as much as she can, and so will her supporters. But she does not have the victory she needed tonight.

Considering how many people in the Republican party dislike McCain, the Republican party already has.

True. But ignore CarolsMarc, Dan. I find it enhances my quality of life to pretend he doesn't exist.

I wonder what the discussion would be like if the Republican party did not use winner take all. It would likely still be a 3 way battle, with McCain winning, without majority support.

Yep. Although I'm glad the Republicans handle things the way they do, because now I can rest easy since McCain is the worst thing I could have to deal with (even though I pretty strongly dislike him). I suppose it's not good for Dems, though.
