Lake County, home of Gary and a stronghold for Barack Obama, is holding out. No votes reported until those last minute absentee ballots are hand counted. Hmm. Michael Barone and Bob Beckel have stories aplenty about “rough and ready” politics there from past elections. The upshot is that most of the morning papers won’t have a banner with “Hillary Wins Indiana.” As she delivers her speech she lacks the certainty of knowing that she won what her campaign is now touting as the “tie breaker,” a term Barack Obama in  a loose moment used to describe that contest.

Clinton’s speech is somewhat meandering and she vows to go on to the White House. It does not have the feel of a victorious night. She and her campaign have the right to be peeved about the Lake County voting shenanigans but she has a bigger problem: she’s running out of time and races.
