With Barack Obama well on the way to a double digit blow-out in North Carolina (68% to Clinton’s 38%, with 25% of precincts reporting) and Clinton with a dwindling, 54-46% lead in Indiana (with 54% of precincts reporting), Clinton filed to obtain the “game changing” primary results needed to change the perception that Obama has enough flaws to deny him the nomination in the face of his insurmountable pledged delegate lead.Moreover, tonight’s results—if the trends hold—will make it near impossible for Clinton to capture a popular vote lead by June, 2008 after the last primary contest.
We will check the final result in the morning, but at this point we believe that Hillary Clinton should start thinking about when and on what terms she is going to withdraw from her race for the Democratic nomination.
