In The End

They run out of money.

Senator Obama will be the Democratic nominee for president this year. He did it the hard way; he earned it.

That said, there is one last chance for the Clinton campaign: make Oregon definitive. Everyone knows she's going to win Kentucky and West Virginia. Everyone expects her to lose in Oregon. If she throws down the gauntlet and says: "Oregon is it. Obama has home field advantage. If he wins, I'm out. If I win, we go all the way to the convention. Game on."

Who, really, could resist? Certainly not the cable networks! And the state is home to millions of white people.
