But when it comes to those pesky delegate rules for the Democrats, Obama didn't run away and hide from Clinton, as Obama officials estimate they will emerge with a delegate advantage of thirteen from Indiana and North Carolina.

Remember the Drudge headline of two weeks ago after Pennsylvania?

"All That For Ten Delegates?"

It did seem ridiculous that all of that energy resulted only in a +10 for Hillary.

Well, all of that energy only gave Obama a +13 for Indiana and North Carolina.

Of course, it was Hillary who needed the +13 to keep the momentum in this race.

The Day After did not produce any flood of superdelegates, as evidently many were content to stay on the sidelines -possibly hoping that Hillary would make their job much easier by dropping out of the race entirely.

Obama did get another superdelegate to switch sides - a double whammy - as that took one off the board for Hillary and chalked it up on the Barack side of the ledger.

So while Clinton does have a mathematical chance at the Democratic nomination, it became painfully obvious through the day on Wednesday that it is not a real chance.

So that leaves us in an American Political Kabuki Dance.

Everyone knows the Senator from New York can't win.

But she'll be on her plane today, going from West Virginia to South Dakota and on to Oregon.  Then an event in Oregon and onto Kentucky on Friday.

West Virginia votes next Tuesday.  Oregon and Kentucky on the 20th, a week later.

How long will this go on?

Nothing will shock me anymore.
