In terms of the math, she won't pick up enough delegates to change the race.
In terms of both the pundits and superdelegates, they have already factored a big Clinton win when making their predictions. The pundits will say it doesn't matter and the superdelegates will still drift towards Obama.
The downside for Clinton of for being expected to do so well is that nothing she does in West Virginia can help her change the race. However, if she should win by "only" twenty percent the story will be that she isn't doing as well as expected.

2. It hurts to hear but won't be a surprise |

All I can say is imagine if this state had been at the front of the herd! It would have gone a large way to cement a negative image of Obama well before anyone had a chance to know him. We were lucky the primaries/caucuses fell the way they did.
