Happy, if not ecstatic

I would have been ecstatic if Obama had won both North Carolina and Indiana. What he did was a good, second best: Huge win in North Caroline - 14 pts - and very close loss in Indiana - 4 pts, or around 25,000 votes or so. It could all be over very soon if enough superdelegates come out for him . . . but things may keep going on if Hillary keeps getting money, and/or if superdelegates don't talk her out of it - until May 20 or May 31. But, as the analysts say: if she has no reasonable - and honorable - path to the nomination, why stay in, to keep bashing Obama?

Your suggestion of Wesley Clark for Obama's veep was suggested by one of the pundits. Hillary, too, but that's problematic (Bill) and doesn't necessarily address Obama's specific gaps with the electorate.
