2. I certainly don't write Hillary off. Not for a moment.
She's tough and smart and some of the Obama supporters talking smack about how she should drop out, don't seem to have a grasp on the political realities of the race. Hillary's run a competitive race and she's won in states that ARE more important and more reflective of the dem party as a whole. I expect her to win in TX, OH and PA and I wouldn't be surprised if she did much better in VA than polls seem to indicate. The race is a draw and even if Obama wins big today, it'll still be more or less a draw. However, Obama has shown the ability to close on Clinton virtually everywhere. I don't think she can beat him by more than a few points in TX. Her best hope is for blowouts in OH and PA and I'm not sure that's realistic.
