On the other hand, once it's clear that the convention will most definitely be brokered after it's announced that Florida certainly DOES count for more than anyone can figure now, I'd say that Obama will still have the best chance to be the Democratic candidate for Vice President.
I've already accepted that Clinton will be the candidate. Limbaugh is already telling republicans to pull the same strategy they did in 92, which is vote for dems in the primaries, then vote for them in the election, that way when the sh!t hits the fan, it's not one of their guys in their.
Obama will of course be allowed a "Bush 84" style run, where he can criticize his boss before taking the nomination in 2016.
Hillary carries women votes, and from both sides. Obama carries the black vote. We should NEVER underestimate the black vote. Some women get mother's day, while black people get ALL of february. Do THAT math!
And undergo fits of bruxism thinking "Florida doesn't count".

I wouldn't count Clinton out yet. The super delegates may be fed up with Obama and his revelations. They could go any way, the delegates endorsing Obama, could in the light of the exposes, think twice of their vote, BUT the Electoral College does have the last word. All I can say is no matter who wins the election, heaven help us all.

Ultimately, does it matter whether Obama or Clinton wins the nomination? Yes, it does. Whichever one wins will face Senator McCain this fall. One of them will face Fed Chairman Ben Bernanke and have to fight one of the deepest recessions since the 1929 Stock Market Crash. The financial crises of the housing and credit lending markets will surely sink whoever wins the election.
As for the article, I think the author takes considerable liberty at counting out the Clintons. They are a powerful force with quite a few delegates. Be assured that even if Senator Clinton loses the nominating process, she will have a say in the government in 2009. The other half of the party may not swiftly unify behind Obama.
