"It's inconceivable the party will deny him the nomination if he has more delegates, " VandeHei says.
Also coming up in the show, we know we've got him, Jim VandeHei from Politico.com.
VandeHei says he believes the Clinton team will come up with a plan for that to happen.
"It shows once again that especially at the ground level, Republicans have a big, big problem, " VandeHei says.
At the end of the day, VandeHei says, Obama is beginning to focus purely on the delegate count.
VandeHei was initially surprised Obama wouldn't stand by one of his closest advisers.
Jim VandeHei of Politico.com says the biggest story coming off the presidential campaigns this month doesn't feature the Democratic rivals.
VandeHei says the GOP is in the worst shape with voters that the party has seen in more than 30 years.
Clinton will focus on March 4 primaries in Texas and especially Ohio, said the Web site Politico's executive editor Jim VandeHei.
Coming up, Jim Vandehei from Politico.com will join us with out weekend politics roundup in case you missed it this weekend.
VandeHei says conservative Republicans who dismissed McCain as not Republican enough are now hoping he can reinvent and reinvigorate the party.
"It's clear they feel that the one ace in the hole that they still hold is national security and fighting terrorism, " VandeHei says.
"Under no circumstances should a Republican lose that seat, " VandeHei says.
But VandeHei says the Obama campaign knows how the game goes.
For evidence of the party's dismal standing, VandeHei points to the loss to Democrats of the deeply conservative, reliably Republican seat in northern Mississippi's 1st Congressional District.
"It's really brilliant politics on the Clintons' behalf, " VandeHei says.
The states could conduct a cheaper vote by mail, but VandeHei wouldn't be surprised if a wealthy donor outside the party leadership stepped up to foot the bill for opening the polling places.
With all eyes on the presidential race, however, VandeHei says the biggest political story of the last two weeks has been a Democratic takeover of the seat formerly held by Republican Rep. Dennis Hastert of Illinois.
Barack Obama snagged seven of 12 delegates and just before Mississippi's contest, Politico.com executive editor Jim VandeHei takes the pulse of the Democratic presidential primary and reveals his vote for the biggest news story of the week.
