She will - eventually.
You will die too - eventually.
Seems like the only reason to carry on is to go 'scorched earth' and screw things up for Obama so the Hillerminator can rise from the molten pot of fire in 2012 and kill everyone...
According to *my* maths/math (and RCP's), Obama only needs 40% of the delegates from today's primaries to take him over the top.
i.e., Assuming none of HIS supers change their mind (big assumption says the Terminator), she cannot possible catch him even if ALL the remaining super-delegates declare for the Terminator.
Not that she'll stop ......
I think my math(s) was out - seems he still needs another 70 delegates...
Total pledged delegates: 3036
Total super delegates: 795
Total needed to win nomination: 1916
Obama currently has 1842 (with a few more to come in from Indiana/NC)
Still, there's another 470 delegates available (200 from the remaining primaries & caucuses and 270 super delegates who have not declared) ...
so he only needs 15% of the remaining delegates to take him over the top!
