Yes, Sen. Hillary Clinton may win the Democratic nomination even if she fails to win the popular vote, but if she wins enough superdelegates to vote for her at the convention.

According to Clinton campaign advisers, it’s not all over for Lady Clinton yet. It is still possible for her to grab the Democratic nomination, if she persuades the majority of superdelegates to vote for her at the convention.    

Losing the recent three primaries Tuesday night, the New York senator Hillary Clinton is slightly pushed behind by her rival, Illinois Senator Barack Obama in the race for Democratic delegates. She is even lagging behind in "pledged'' delegates, those assigned by virtue of primaries and caucuses.

However, Clinton's communications director, Howard Wolfson, said, “But Clinton will not concede the race to Obama if he wins a greater number of pledged delegates by the end of the primary season, and will count on the 796 elected officials; the party bigwigs may still put her over the top, if necessary.”

Speaking to the reporters, Wolfson said, "I want to be clear about the fact that neither campaign is in a position to win this nomination without the support of the votes of the superdelegates.''

"We don't make distinctions between delegates chosen by million of voters in a primary and those chosen between tens of thousands in caucuses, And we don't make distinctions when it comes to elected officials who vote as superdelegates at the convention. We are interested in acquiring delegates, period,'' Wolfson said.

Clinton counsels rejected the notion that the image of the party would be badly wounded in the general election, if the nominee were selected by party insiders, ignoring the decision of the popular vote.

Senior strategist of the Clinton campaign, Mark Penn said, "This is a nomination system that exists of caucuses, primaries, superdelegates and also the issue of voters in Florida and Michigan,'' states whose delegates currently will not be seated at the convention because they broke party rules by moving up their primaries to January, But whoever the nominee is, the party will come together behind that nominee.''

According to the Clinton camp’ advocators, the caucuses, where Obama has bested Clinton in all but one state -- are inherently undemocratic, since only a small percentage of eligible voters are able to make it to a caucus site and commit the time to vote at a particular hour.

Initially supporting other Democrats in opposing Michigan and Florida's decisions to go ahead with early primaries, Clintons now want the votes of those primaries counted. But according to Obama camp, the idea is unfair, since candidates were not allowed to campaign in those states, and Clinton alone kept her name on the Michigan ballot, meaning Obama did not have a chance at getting even provisional delegates.

Meanwhile, both Clinton and Obama camps are gearing up for the contests next week in Hawaii and Wisconsin. Currently, Obama is leading Clinton in the delegate count, but Clinton may still take the party nomination, if she performs well in the upcoming March contests of Ohio, Texas, and Rhode Island, or if she could garner the votes of the majority of superdelegates.
