It would have been a Daily Show type of moment, to speak to the voters in Fickle and see how they viewed the Obama-Clinton race.

In a sense, Democratic voters have been fairly fickle this election year, routinely telling pollsters that neither Clinton nor Obama should think about getting out of this race, no matter the numbers on the scoreboard.

Last night, Clinton won a hard fought victory in Indiana, again cobbling together a coalition of voters that included Catholics, working class Democrats and voters in rural counties, while Obama won college towns and more liberal, urban areas.

But Obama did better with Catholics in Indiana than in Ohio and Pennsylvania, one reason the vote was so close in the Hoosier State.

One piece of the exit polling data really was interesting, in that of the voters who said that the economic downturn had not affected them, they were more likely to support Obama.

In other words, Obama is still winning the Limousine Liberals and Clinton is winning the Reagan Democrats. I still find that unbelievably ironic.

So what now for Hillary Clinton?

Since Barack Obama evidently can't knock her out of the race, then the job is going to be left up to the superdelegates.

I'm sure Team Obama is leaning heavily on some of them to get out there and spur a wave of endorsements, driving home the point that Hillary Clinton just cannot win this nomination.

But until we get to that point, I see no reason why Clinton is just going to give up.

If you want a sports metaphor to work with, Obama can be the Boston Red Sox and Clinton can be the Yankees.

The magic number for the Red Sox to clinch is two with five games to play. Chances are, the Bosox aren't going to screw that up.

But the Yankees keep hoping and hoping that they can win five straight, and maybe, just maybe, they can catch the Red Sox in game 162.

It's happened before in baseball and other sports, so it could happen in this race.

But the chances aren't good.

Still, I expect to see Hillary Clinton in West Virginia, Kentucky and Oregon in coming days. West Virginia votes next Tuesday, with Kentucky and Oregon going on May 20.

Maybe she goes all the way through June 3rd and doesn't stop raising hell about Michigan and Florida until Obama has enough delegates to lock up the nomination.

But the writing is on the wall.

By the way, did I mention to you where Fickle is located?

In Clinton County, Indiana. You can't make that stuff up.

And Clinton County did go for Hillary Clinton, 60-40%.
