Today we are reminded, once again, that the race for the Democratic nomination hasn’t yet ended, as Kentucky and Oregon hold primaries for their mostly white residents. In Kentucky, voters are expected to hand Clinton another huge victory that comes a little too late to matter. Oregonians — 75,000 of whom swarmed into a single Obama rally in Portland over the weekend — are expected to reward Obama with an overall majority in total pledged delegates (which doesn’t really matter since he’ll need superdelegates anyway, but it’s still nice for him). Obama will bring the campaign full circle by traveling to Iowa tonight, the place where this all began, to deliver a xxtriumphantxxvictoryxxspeechxx speech proclaiming that he’s won the most pledged delegates but it’s still totally cool with him if Clinton wants to keep running.
