Make Me a Superdelegate

What do "Make Me a Supermodel" contestant Ronnie Kroell and presidential wannabe Hillary Rodham Clinton have in common? Well, mostly likely they're both runners-up in very close contests. I do admire his -- and her -- passion though (I'm still fighting the fight too). There's a great article in today's Times about the three possible outcomes of today's primaries in Indiana and North Carolina: she wins both; he wins both; they split 'em. And Jodi Kantor's story -- With Right Props and Stops, Clinton Transforms Into Working-Class Hero -- is one of the most unintentionally intentionally hilarious political pieces I've read in years:

"Whatever the results of the primaries on Tuesday in Indiana and North Carolina, Mrs. Clinton has accomplished the seemingly impossible in those states. Somehow, a woman who has not regularly filled her own gasoline tank in well over a decade, who with her husband made $109 million in the last eight years and who vacations with Oscar de la Renta, has transformed herself into a working-class hero. ... She has made her case at all the right stops (an auto-racing hall of fame) and used all the right props (lately delivering speeches from pickup beds)."

Stay tuned. It's liable to be a long night ...
