Could tonight’s Democratic primaries in North Carolina and Indiana spell the end of Hillary Clinton’s campaign for the White House?

Maybe.

Final Zogby polling suggests that Clinton is behind by 14 points in North Carolina and 2 points in the essential Indiana contest. 

Now, I suppose that North Carolina can be partially written off as a case of “demographics” - which is her code word for a state with a high African-American population.  But an Obama win in Indiana would all but end the race tonight.

If Obama wins both states, there’s really only one good strategy left.  The Clinton campaign should shift everything it has into a last-ditch attempt to win (and win BIG) in West Virginia next week.  It wouldn’t help her much in the delegate race, but the symbolic victory would give her the ability to go into immediate negotiations for the Vice-Presidential spot on the ticket.
