Hillary Wins! (Too Little, Too Late)

Not that it matters all that much but Hillary Clinton did take the Pennsylvania popular vote as expected by 9.4 percentage points. However, since the Democratic Primary is race for delegates, Obama's performance Tuesday was enough, according to my most trusted TV pundit Chuck Todd, to clinch the delegate race. Not only that, Barack halved her lead in the state over the past 2 months and pretty much bankrupted her campaign. Clinton's last and only hope has been to completely destroy Obama, leaving her the last person standing. But so far she has only succeeded in destroying the Clinton legacy and tearing apart a Democratic party that was set to be more united than ever before. So while she crows and cackles today at her apparent sucess, in fact Hillary (and Bill) Clinton have only hurt themselves, their party and put the future of this nation at risk.
