Days Are Numbered In Democratic Race
With Decision On Mich., Fla. Delegates, A "Fixed FInish Line" Over Nomination Is In Place
(CBS) A "fixed finish line" is in place for the determination of the Democratic Party nominee, says Sen. Carl Levin, D-Mich., who feels it is unlikely Sen. Hillary Clinton will remain in the race all the way to the convention.

However, with yesterday's ruling by Democratic Party officials over the disputed delegates from Florida and Michigan, Clinton advisor Mandy Grunwald said that Clinton still has a very strong case to make for the support of the party's superdelegates who will be the ultimate deciding factor.
“Over 17 million people have now voted for Hillary Clinton," Grunwald said, representing the "deepest and broadest coalition" needed to win in November.
She also warned of the sentiment voiced by some Hillary supporters at the outset of yesterday's meeting: "If a female candidate, the first successful one in history, goes into the convention leading in the popular vote and it's taken away from her, how do you think women are going to feel, heading into the November election?”

*Despite todays desperate efforts by Howard Dean, the Obama campaign and the driveby media to have us believe that all is sweetness and light and butterflies in DemDem paradise... dear hearts, it ain't. Far from it. Blow Hillary off and the organic fertilizer is gonna hit the rotary air recirculation device.
