Some people out there in the blogosphere have been complaining recently about Barack Obama's supporters harping on one and only one issue; Obama's insurmountable lead over Hillary Clinton.

Maybe they have a point.

All of us Obama bloggers have come up with our own creative ways to tell the story of Sen. Clinton's efforts to redefine reality.  While writing about this issue has been therapeutic for many of us, it is time to move on.

What better way is there to move on than to take a look forward at the possible end game for Barack Obama?

Fortunately for the Senator from Illinois things are looking up.  The latest polls in North Carolina are still showing Obama with a comfortable seven to nine-point lead over Clinton as we head into the May 6^th primary.

In Indiana it is much closer, but just Friday afternoon the Indianapolis Star released its latest poll showing Obama leading Clinton 41% - 38%.   

The conventional wisdom is that if Barack Obama can hold on to leads in both North Carolina and Indiana and win both May 6^th primaries, the floodgates holding back all of the uncommitted superdelegates will open.  The unleashed torrent of new superdelegate support will effectively end Clinton's campaign, even if she doesn't officially drop out.

The question for David Plouffe and the Barack Obama campaign then becomes "What can Obama do between now and May 6^th to seal the deal in Indiana and North Carolina?"

The answer is simple.

Two words:  Slam. Dunk.

Now I know that the political value of the phrase "slam dunk" has been compromised in recent years by former CIA Director George Tenet's infamous claim that Saddam Hussein's possession of WMD was a "slam dunk case", but the slam dunk I am talking about here is not just a metaphor.  The slam dunk I am talking about is a real, no foolin', Jordan taking off from the free throw line, Dominique Wilkins twisting, Vince Carter "Honey-Dip-style" dunk performed by none other than Barack Obama himself.

Ok, so maybe the 46-year old Obama can't quite pull off a Jordanesque dunk, but think about the positive press Obama would get from a video showing Barack on a fast break in a pick-up game leaping over...say...Terry McAuliffe and throwing it down.

There's a chance McAuliffe wouldn't go for this, so maybe Plouffe will have to find someone else to stand in as the poor guy getting dunked on, but the Obama campaign needs to make this happen.

At his age it might be tough for Barack to actually dunk on a regulation ten-foot high rim, but adjustable rims are readily available.  No one watching the footage will know that the rim was only eight and a half feet tall.  Just do it.

A single ten second clip of this event would be enough to create one of the most memorable political moments of all time.  It would spread like wildfire across the internet.  It would be on a constant loop on all the cable news networks and every late night comedian and local news team in the country would show it over and over and over.  Obama's popularity would instantly elevate from "political rock star" to just flat out "rock star."

Imagine how motivating this would be for the youth vote.

Imagine how motivating it would be for the voters in the Hoosier State.  In Indiana the only thing more important than going to church is basketball, and there's even an argument to be made that it may be the other way around.

So if you thought Jesse Ventura was a hit with male college aged voters in Minnesota you ain't seen nothing until you've seen Air Obama.
