Hillary is 4% ahead. If Lake county has 8% of the population, Barack has to win it by 75% to overcome her 4% in the rest of the state. That seems improbable. I think the 57% refers to all the remaining precincts, which at this time are 14% of the state vote. But some of these precincts are for Hillary.

Just watched Clinton's speech. Absolutely fascinating on multiple levels. Russert said it was two speeches, concession and onward to victory. I think that's right. And something I felt as she was delivering it. I kept saying to my wife, ah, she's conceding, gracefully, ah, she's charging on, ah, she's conceding, etc. Still no conclusion about Indiana as I type at 11:25 pm on Tuesday evening. I think the next two or three days are critical. I don't see the Clinton's being able to get beyond it to keep going. Too many necessary support mechanisms will be gone. Russert said, interestingly, one of the things the Obama campaign might have to do to get her out is to take on her campaign debt. Rather sizable and much of it owed to Mark Penn. How's them apples?
