Obama has actually won more delegates than Hillary Clinton has so far in the primaries/caucuses that have occured, and is about to win South Carolina by a big margin.
But this will likely be written off as a win just based on race, and hillary Clinton has a huge lead in Florida, which may or may not matter, and an equally huge lead in states like New York, New Jersey, Massachusetts and California, which certainly do matter.
So, after Obama wins SC, what can he possibly do to win the nomination? Can winning Illinois and a few other states on Super Tuesday be enough to keep him going through the whole primary season? I know pronouncing the deaths of campaigns has a terrible track record in this race, but I just can't see what Obama can do to beat Hillary in enough contests to win the nomination...
