Nevada

Okay, so Obama's team spins it as a delegate win, but Hillary wins the popular vote and momentum perception, and it looks like she wins it pretty ugly. And what the hell with Bill Clinton acting as un-Presidential as possible?

Look, I'm all in favor of Obama taking heat and proving his campaign through it. If he can't handle Rovian tactics as channeled by the Clintons, he won't be able to in the General Election. That includes racism both subtle and overt, inexperience claims, lack-of-substance smears (check out his website for all his smart plans), Muslim and Anti-Semitism smears and, the cherry on the sundae, scaring Americans with his middle name, "Hussein".

But if the Clintons (and it sure seems to be a gang-up effort) manage to win by bitterly dividing the Democratic Party, how the hell do they plan to get even their miserly 51% on Election Day?
