What about NC?

Looking at CNN and memeorandum this morning, all of the focus seems to be on Indiana, which holds its primary on May 6. The same day North Carolina holds its primary, but despite it being a bigger state with more voters and more delegates at stake, it's like they've decided it isn't important.

Why is that? I mean, sure, Indiana is the more competitive race of the two, but if Obama can be called unelectable by Hillary supporters because he can only close the gap in a state that was tailor-made for Hillary to win, why can't we question why Hillary can just ignore and be blown out in states that favour Obama? Apparently the media has decided to buy Clinton's line that the only "important" states are the ones she has a chance of winning in.

Too bad for Hillary that isn't the way reality works.
