Is Hillary Clinton set to lose the Democratic primary?
The media are now starting to ponder the possibility after Sen. Obama's impressive four victories in the latest primaries. There is talk now that the Clinton camp will forgo fighting in the next six states to focus in on Ohio and Texas, two important primaries in early March.
That's a risky proposition. Rudy Giuliani tried this strategy and it failed. It would also be incredibly difficult to fight back the momentum the Obama campaign will have after a possible string of 10 straight primary wins.
I believe the Clintons are two of the best political practitioners alive and maybe who ever lived. They have been counted out before, only to rise from the ashes later. Their campaign will get dirtier and more hard-hitting in the next two weeks for sure.
I still think she will end up winning the nomination, although it's getting increasingly more difficult to figure out how.
The Democratic establish might also end up demanding that both end up on the ticket to avoid an ugly split convention.
