Trying to remove information from the Internet is like trying to remove pee from a swimming pool.

Last night and early this morning, America witnessed the beginning of the end of the Clinton dynasty. Clinton supporters may deny it, they may still make the arguments about superdelegates and how the votes of the people don't actually matter; but the truth is a cold, cruel mistress, and it's invaded the Clinton campaign.

All eyes were on Indiana's Lake county, which contains Gary as well as other Chicago suburbs, close to Obama's home base.  The county withheld all election results until the 11,000+ absentee ballots were counted, drawing out the contest into the late night and early morning.  When it was all over, Clinton, the heavy favorite to win the state, squeaked out a bittersweet 2-point victory.  Obama swept the other primary in North Carolina by 14 points.

Despite the slight loss in Indiana, Barack Obama won the night, increasing his overall delegate lead, even making up for his delegate loss in Pennsylvania, and making it more unlikely for his opponent to overcome it.  Hillary Clinton failed to "close the deal" and keep her momentum from the Pennsylvania primary.  She needed a big win in Indiana last night, and she didn't deliver.

It's interesting to look at the Indiana primary county-by-county.  While Clinton won the rural, sparsely populated areas, Obama was the favorite in urban counties.  While Clinton may have won some of the "big states," Obama won the "big counties" in Indiana.

Not even Michigan and Florida can save Clinton now.  Even if they were counted, Obama would still lead in delegates and the popular vote.  It's over, it's simply over for Hillary Clinton.  I think I share many peoples' sentiments when I say "good riddance to bad rubbish."  We no longer have the threat of a Bush or a Clinton in the White House, a shared dynasty that's been going on since 1981, longer than I've been alive.  That gives me more hope than any Obama speech ever could.
