Fox News .... Pushing the "Obama is in trouble" meme

I have been doing snow removal for the past 48 hours on and off
so forgive me if I don't get every detail right.

Fox News campaign analysis about 12:00 Noon (eastern time) 3/9/08

"Obama wins Wyoming but only picks up 2 more delegates than
Clinton ..... How much trouble is his campaign in?" Rough Quote.

All day I kept thinking about how "up front" they are w/ their agenda ....

Obama w/ the lead in delegates picks up more delegates than Clinton
so his lead increases which put him closer to the nomination and Hillary
further back ..... Did I miss something?

1. Hillary is going to have to get at least 60% of the vote from ALL the remaning contests

just to pull even. Obama's in trouble, all right.

4. make that at least 62% that she has to win by on avg.

he has basically clinched the declared delegate count, and unless he gets completely blown out in Pennsylvania and she makes it close or wins in the states he is leading in (NC, MS, etc.), he will surely win the popular vote as well (and NO, Michigan and Florida DO NOT count. Them's the rules, and Clinton can't change them now just because she is losing). The "math," as they say, is in his favor. Those are facts, regardless of what side you are on.
