Dev Null is counting delegates and waiting for another shot at prime-time.

Admit it, American public, you're obsessed. The item below about the ratings that MSNBC enjoyed with last night's Democratic debate in Cleveland proves it. No one's watched MSNBC like that since Soledad O'Brien did the news with a cartoon barista. (His name was Dev Null and he is pictured above. This is probably no longer listed on O'Brien's resume.)
Now, the good people at Slate have unveiled a tool you can use to explore all the possible scenarios in which Hillary Clinton could overtake Barack Obama and secure the nomination. Feel free to post your theories here -- conspiracy and otherwise. (There's always that obscure Guam-North Carolina scenario, which sounds a bit like a first-round matchup in the NCAA tournament.)
Believe us, the Clinton campaign is doing a version of this every hour of the day. You might as well try it too.
