 <title>Clinton campaign ends May 20</title>

 <description>&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.americablog.com/2008/05/russert-its-over-for-hillary-she-lost.html&quot;&gt;It&#039;s over for Hillary. She just lost the nomination.&lt;/a&gt; Sen. Obama outperformed the polls, trouncing Sen. Clinton in North Carolina and nearly upsetting her in Indiana. 

There&#039;s not enough delegates at left for Clinton to overtake Obama, even if you throw in the disputed Florida and Michigan contests. Short of Obama getting hit by a meteorite, she&#039;s finished. 

There are two scenarios that could play out here. One, that Clinton plays nice, raises a little money to pay off her debts, takes victory laps in Kentucky and West Virginia, and drops out on or shortly after May 20. That is when Obama will likely have the magic number of delegates to secure the nomination.

The other scenario is that she completely loses it and carries on with the &quot;kitchen sink&quot; campaign, making an already ugly primary season even worse, hoping to cause enough of a split in the party to possibly take the nomination at the convention. 

Despite all the nastiness and BS coming from Clinton, I think she will eventually concede here. I would bet there will be a meeting between the Clintons and Obama sometime soon to work out some kind of deal so that Clinton retains some stake in the future. </description>
