Could one reporter do this exact story only change the subject of the story. Charlie Cook has been promoting this basic story line since January with mild editing. Neither candidate will win the nomination outright without Super delegates. Why then does every story end with only one candidate singled out for purgatory. It is probably pretty hot as well when you can't win the big states, are behind with the majority of voters in the Democratic nomination process and are clinging to the prayer that two of the biggest states won't have their votes counted in Denver. Doesn't really sound all that pleasant, but Charlie Cook never mentions it.
