This is bigger than Ohio and Texas combined

According to Kos, the likely delegate shift out of March 4th due to Texas and Ohio is... 0.

Clinton has claimed both as major victories and reasons to fight on.

Well, those reasons are gone.

In a stunning upset ∞% larger than the combined victories in Texas and Ohio, Barack Obama has won the endorsement of Dayton mayor Rhine McLin:

DAYTON, Ohio -- Mirroring the unofficial results of the Democratic Presidential race in Montgomery County, Dayton Mayor Rhine McLin today announced her endorsement of Illinois Senator Barack Obama.

This victory erases Clinton's likely net delegate gain out of March 4th, a previously insurmountable 1 delegate.

Can we expect tomorrow's headlines to blare BIG WIN for Obama?  Perhaps CLINTON MOMENTUM HALTED?  Or will the media continue to ignore every fact in order to prolong the horse race and continue their orgy of punditry?

•  The media will promote this as long as they can..

  It's an easy story to promote, one that writes itself.
