I just see so many strong states for Clinton/so many strong states for Obama. March 4 could see a split. The Feb 9 primaries could see a split. Things will get very very very muddied if there is no clear winner. Here's a look at the primary calendar and we can see why this might truly go on and on. I thought PA might seal the deal for Clinton on April 22, but Obama might concede that state since she is so strong there. Who knows. Anyway, here's a look at the upcoming calendar. I see it going right to Denver. OTOH, Obama could perform very well on the 12th and the 19th if he survives Super Tuesday perhaps creating a last stand for Clinton in Ohio on March 4.

1. That would be very hard now that edwards has dropped |
|
He's won such a low percentage of delegates so far that the candidates would have to be virtually tied for neither to have a majority.
