There are 189 delegates up for grabs after tonight ...
Hillary needs 172 of them to tie and/or overtake Obama's lead.

Get a grip, Hillary, you're making us all sick.

1. This needs to be repeated Ad nauseam.
She can't win. The sooner she and her supporters realize this, the sooner we can take on McCain.

3. Even if Oregon didnt vote next week, Kentucky would ..
give him the delegates he needs to clinch it.

Yet, she stays in. She WANTS Obama to implode. She should be ashamed of herself.

6. There will only be 84 delegates left after next Tuesday
The gap after tonight will be 168.5 (this is assuming a net of 10 delegates in WV based on exit polls). This means Clinton needs to pick up a net of 84.5 delegates to not be mathematically eliminated. This means she needs to hold Obama to 9 delegates next week to win 94-9, as a 93-10 win would only net 83 delegates.

9 delegates. In Oregon.

4. Quick Math
Giving Hillary a 65% win in KY, WV, and PR and Obama an 8 point victory in Oregon

Hillary needs 80% of the remaining Super Delegates or 191

Obama needs 25% of the remaining Super Delegates 62
