As Dick Morris aptly puts it "It's Still Over For Hillary". Anyone with some basic math skills can see that. She is so far behind that there isn't a plausible path to victory. I'm pretty sure that as all the media outlets started seeing the returns come in from Ohio and Texas they thought "crap, this is over". They quickly changed the narrative to forget about the numbers and focus on the fact that she won at all.
That narrative is set for a test tomorrow after the Mississippi primary. If Obama can win it by 15% it will force the media to go back and take a look at delegate counts. The new narrative will look at best possible outcomes for Michigan, Florida and Pennsylvania and see that it's still nigh impossible for her to win. One thing the media is missing is that Hillary doesn't want a recount she wants the current delegates seated, that's not going to happen.
To sum up I predict that by Monday of next week the new (old) narrative will set back in. "When will Clinton drop out of the race?"
I'd also like to add that now that the media has a new scandal to focus their attention on they'll be even less likely to care if Hillary can win or not.
