Groundog Day

So, the voters in Ohio and Texas saw their shadow and declared that there will be six more weeks of campaigning. Get ready Pennsylvania, your airwaves are about to become clogged with ads.

There's no question that Senator Clinton had a good night last night. She needed a win in both states to keep going and she got 'em. Now the race turns to a new phase. Even if one candidate won all the remaining delegates, they could still not reach the magic 2025. That means that the Superdelegates will be crucial. There have been reports that 50 superdelegates are set to endorse Obama soon, and that Clinton is trying desperately to "freeze" them. That's all well and good, but at the end of the day, either someone will have to drop out, or a deal will have to be made. Even six more weeks and then PA won't change that basic fact.
