Dueling headlines

From the "News-O-Rama" feeds over there on the right:

Clinton wins big in Puerto Rico (AP Politics)

Puerto Rico moves Obama closer to nomination (AP Politics)

OK, then.

On a side note, it's funny, but not really, that the media wants to keep this thing going to stoke viewer interest when every credible analysis shows a win is mathematically impossible for Clinton at this point. (Unless there is a sea change of delegate voting at the convention.)

I will also be amused on Wednesday when enough "superdelegates" declare for Obama, who couldn't win it in the regular primary either, to put him over the top. I'm reminded of the March/April talk at Daily Kos and elsewhere re. how undemocratic it would be if Clinton were to win based on "superdelegates."

We're through the looking glass. Yay Obama! On to Symbolic Moral Victory in November!
