If that happened, Clinton’s only hope/salvation would be by the Superdelegates.

But that won't happen. If Obama has a delegate lead the Super delegates will go to him...even if it's close...to do otherwise would doom the party. I'm hating our nomination season but loving theirs!

Exactly. The powers-that-be will support Obama for this reason: Bill has played the implicit racism card hoping to scare Whitey into voting against Obama. The African-Americans know that they are being dissed and WILL NOT show up to vote for Hillary if she is the nominee. So, the dim party will have lost their most reliable voting block for this election and probably many more. For this reason alone, the super delegates will back Obama. He offers everything that Clinton offers without the baggage. Plus he's young and inexperienced and will likely be easy clay in the hands of those powers-that-be.
