Even our exclusive Superdelegate Tracker must admit that with Hillary Clinton’s announcement that she’s ending her campaign and endorsing Barack Obama, it’s getting tougher to see how she secures the nomination.  As “Saturday Night Live” used to joke:

Generallissimo Francisco Franco is still dead.  Despite Franco’s death and an expected burial tomorrow, doctors say the dictator’s health has taken a turn for the worse.

Against that backdrop, our Superdelegate Tracker sends this last gasp note:

Now that they no longer can argue delegate count or popular vote, the Clinton campaign is now focusing on new metric to determine the Democratic nominee that has Hillary winning outright:
