Hillary Clinton
Related: About this forumRecap of the state of the delegates this bright sunny morning:
As of this morning Clinton is at 2,358.
That's 25 short of the magic number. With the 40 (or more) superdelegates waiting in the wings AND the prospect of her getting about 400 delegates tomorrow night, that would put her WAY over 2,383, somewhere around 2,800 - 400+ above the "requisite" number.
Add to that Obama's blessing and possibly Elizabeth Warren's, it's clean sailing.
Now we have to see what Sanders is going to do on Wednesday or Thursday. He is NOT going to flip 500 superdelegates!!!

Clinton now leads Sanders by 800 delegates, per NBC count. She's 24 away from the 2,383 needed to win. He's 824 away.
