Hillary is now being totally ignored by everyone. She's simply not relevant. Obama picked up four more SDs yesterday, and John Edwards also endorsed him.
Hillary's only slight hope for success came on the night of the Indiana and North Carolina primaries. She needed to do two things on that night in order to gain momentum and potentially attract super delegates.
She needed to win Indiana comfortably, and she needed to cut his NC victory to single digits. She did neither of those things. She won Indiana by the skin of her teeth and he won NC by 16 points. In the weeks since then, he has been endorsed by 34 SDs and she has been endorsed by 2.
As a result of her meaningless victory in WV, Obama has a 168 delegate lead over her...the biggest lead he's ever had. This pattern will continue. She'll win Kentucky and Puerto Rico, and she and NEON will be the only two people in the Country who think that it actually means anything.
Obama will win Oregon and Montana, and the SDs will continue to endorse him. Come June 3rd, she will finally be forced out of the race, and she'll go and prepare for another run in either 4 or 8 years.
