The election is not even close to over. The primary might be leaning strongly in Obama's favor, but the election is going to last until November. Clinton has gained 9 superdelegates since that day. Obama has gained 47. The numbers are large enough that I don't see why you need to exaggerate them. I'd get over that tendency. The right wing will grab onto false claims and make it seem as if Obama's supporters are delusional.

I think BTD is using the "Obama is the nominee" meme as a suggestion for the Obamaites to take into account that they will need the pro-Hillary Dems to win, if (and I hope he isn't) he is actually --ouch, this is hard to write! - the nominee. Conversely if Hillary is the nominee it will not help her chances of winning if the O people have been slamming her non-stop.
