They have time to do it. Fooling around with CNN's delegate calculator, I found some interesting stuff: if Mrs. Clinton wins every single delegate in every single primary, she would still be 31 delegates short of clinching the nomination. And if there were no superdelegates, Obama would have already won the nomination.
NY Times Assails Clinton For Negative Campaign

Filed at 11:08 a.m. ET
NEW YORK (Reuters) - The New York Times, which endorsed Hillary Clinton for president, sharply criticized on Wednesday what it called her negative campaign against Barack Obama in the race for the Democratic nomination.
In editorial headlined "The Low Road to Victory," the Times called the campaign ahead of Tuesday's Pennsylvania primary "meaner, more vacuous, more desperate, and more filled with pandering than the mean, vacuous, desperate, pander-filled contests that preceded it."
It laid most of the blame on Clinton, endorsed in January as a knowledgeable and experienced candidate.
The editorial ran a day after Clinton scored a decisive victory over Obama in Pennsylvania, cutting into the Illinois senator's national lead in popular votes and delegates who will select the Democratic Party's nominee in August.
"It is past time for Senator Hillary Rodham Clinton to acknowledge that the negativity, for which she is mostly responsible, does nothing but harm to her, her opponent, her party and the 2008 election," the Times said.

The New York Times is not
The New York Times is not serious. If it were serious, it would never have endorsed her and it would retract its earlier endorsement. The Times wants to have it both ways. A few days ago, it ran a long piece about the Pentagon's use of retired military officers and the role they played to promote the American War in Iraq. This was obvious when the invasion and occupation, which the Times wholeheartedly supported, was going on.
