The Media: It’s Over

By Justin Gardner | Related entries in 2008 Election, Barack, Democrats, Hillary, Video

A quick roundup of opinions all across this great mediasphere of ours…

Whatever the case may be, she can’t win the nomination and the media has been waiting until it was obvious to say it. Seriously, last night the floodgates just opened and I think it had to do with how big Obama won North Carolina. Because now her last argument about the popular vote was completely gone. There’s no way she can catch up, even with Florida and Michigan.

So what will happen? Will she quit after all the primaries are over? Or will she bow out after Kentucky?

This Sunday should be a doozy.

“Seriously, last night the floodgates just opened and I think it had to do with how big Obama won North Carolina.”

Why? Obama was expected to win N.C., with its large African American population, handily. And so he did.

But Indiana, with its heavily working-class-white population and small African American population, should’ve been a big win for Clinton. Instead, she barely won it at all. That did terrible damage to her pitch to superdelegates that she can win working-class whites, while Obama can’t, and therefore she’s the more electable candidate.
