Hillary's camp said that they're going to keep on going, even though there is no way she can catch up in pledged delegates. And given tonight's returns, even if the votes from Michigan and Florida were counted, Clinton can't catch up in either the delegates or the popular vote.
But Rachel Maddow said that none of this matters, because the math has been against the Clinton campaign for months now. Maddow described the Clinton strategy as a "post-rational" one, and truer words have never been spoken.
In the last few weeks, Hillary's strategy has been to expose Obama as being unelectable and thus convince the Superdelegates that she is the stronger choice.
Tonight's slim margin in Indiana and the blowout in North Carolina have proved that Obama has weathered the Reverend Wright storm.
Will Hillary stop, though?
No. We're in the post-rational world.

guess she wasn't an english major.
Isn't it wordish enough for you?
Our clever strategists need to come back and put the Palin "female" angle away for good. She may be a woman but not the right woman.
Let's refocus fast before people begin to believe what the GOP says.
Worried in CT.
