Thank goodness for Kevin.

I was a little worried about Obama’s losses in Ohio and Texas, but Kevin’s spelled it all out for me: Hilary’s still done. Stick a fork in her. I especially liked the football metaphor.

Obama is up 34-7 in the fourth quarter. Clinton just scored a touchdown. The score is now 34-14, but now there’s only 2 minutes left and Obama has the ball. For all intent and purposes, he can just take a knee and run out the clock. (Not that I suggest he do so. Since the other team is playing dirty, we might as well run up the score.)

On a related note, I got some emails today from the Democrats Abroad confirming that I’m now a full member. (I signed up when I voted in the primary.)

    Excellent! Tell the Democrats Abroad I said hi. 🙂

    Just to further assuage your fears, Newsweek’s Jonathan Alter made the same argument today. So it’s not just me.

    Why haven’t the rest of the pundits followed suit? Beats me. Math is hard, I guess.

    To carry on the analogy.. I just hope they don’t injure the QB on the winning team before it’s over, leaving them to win the playoff game, but be in bad shape for the Superbowl.
