By now everybody knows Hillary Clinton’s once huge lead among super-delegates has not only shrunk it now belongs to Barack Obama.

However, until Barack Obama reaches 2,025 delegates it’s not over and Hillary Clinton can continue to sink her party and keep fighting. It is still possible for each candidate to become the Democratic Presidential Nominee for President.

First let’s say the last five contests go down like this.

Clinton wins Kentucky 66% to 34%

Obama wins Oregon 56% to 44%

Obama wins Montana 53% to 47%

Obama wins South Dakota 56% to 44%

Clinton wins Puerto Rico 60% to 40%

Given the latest polls these results seem resonable enought.

If the last five contests happen like this then Barack Obam will need just…23% to the remaining super delegates to secure the nomination. Just 23%! Hillary Clinton clings to the fact that it is still possible. And itdeed it is. If she gets…85% of the remaining superdelegates she will get there…85%!

Once again I will admit it is possbile but it is also possible Al Gore will run as thrid party candidate.
