Hillary Now Turns to Super-Duper Delegates

The mathematical reality of her defeat in acquiring pledged delegates and super delegates having become starkly apparent, Hillary Clinton this morning announced that her campaign would now focus on gaining the support of "super-duper delegates."

"I'm still here because I think I would be the best president," said the candidate characterized of late as either indomitable or delusional. "So now it will be up to the super-duper delegates to decide."

Officials in Clinton's campaign took time from updating resumes and checking monster.com to explain, on the condition of anonymity, her remark. Super-duper delegates, they said, are rather like a combination of Greek gods, comic book super heroes, and the tooth fairy. Invisible to ordinary humans, they manifest themselves in various forms to the politically entitled. Clinton expects them this year to appear in the form of older white women in the working class.

"Senator Clinton is counting on them to show up at the convention, announce that Obama is unelectable, and hand her the nomination," said one staffer. "It's not a lot to base the campaign on, but you've got to remember that the Senator has a lot of experience with this kind of thing. You know: Gennifer Flowers, Monica Lewinsky, all that."
