The empress' new clothing!

Mrs Clinton is in it to win it. Or, rather, she is just still in it...and smelling full of it the longer she insists on "still standing". Stand down already!

As the intelligent woman she is and the gifted political team she and her husband make, it is insufferable that the Clinton campaign fails to face the music, or, rather, the math: with only 86 delegates remaining at stake and Mr Obama shy of the 49 he needs to clinch the nomination it is mathematically impossible for her to surmount his lead. Only a deus ex machina can change the course of things and she's probably been giving us a hint of it.

It is mathematically (translation: Reality) impossible for Mrs Clinton to win even if she won each of the three remaining primaries. Some Democratic elders have spoken thus: Geo. McGovern, Patrick Leahy, Edward Kennedy, Jimmy Carter. Like the Monkey, the Clinton campaign respects these men and their dissenting views but, ultimately, she is the decision-maker.

See how she acts in the face of reality! Just like the mad Monkey.

Whether the leader has balls or not, if she is wearing the emperor's new clothes, she is still naked. Follow the math on the blackboard, Mrs Clinton. You're done!
