Dick Morris will never make Keith Oberman's list of Best Person's in the World (and may have made the Worse, Worst, or Worser) but he did get the math right!
After all the boxing, horse racing and yes even tennis examples; the scrore is Hillary with a ten percentage point win, but minus the ten percentage points she needed to catch Obama.
The bottom line has been clear for all to see: Obama WILL win 1) twice as many states 2) the most delegates 3) the popular vote.
Hillary's last gasp is the super delegates. She has given them the new name, AUTOMATIC, but I doubt they will turn out to follow her argument like robots.
Hillary's bet is that they will hunker down, out of fear BECAUSE OBAMA MIGHT NOT HAVE WHAT IT TAKES and instead give the nomination to her: the candidate who could not win by any of the three standard measures.
Like Morris, I think even the Democrats are wiser than that.
Just because one state that is populated by a large number of older people (who remember and some even rode in the covered wagon) went big for Hillary---and 10 points is Big, just not BIG Eough. That does not mean that is the way to go for this party. The future is the new blood, the independents (who could not vote in PA).
Hillary cannot change the math... and it is not Obama's job to find the Fat Lady--I guess Howard Dean will have to suffice.

I resemble that remark about the denizens of MHS (my home state) of Pennsylvania. Covered WAGON??? Mikey...no need to call us names!
