IN & NC Aftermath: Clinton's money running dry?

Tuesday night did not go as Hillary Clinton and her supporters had hoped, and it looks like the New York Senator is running out of money.

She has loaned her own campaign $6.4 million over the last month. While that's not a harbinger of doom (she also loaned herself $5 million in February, during a very successful stretch), it strengthens Sen. Barack Obama's lead in both delegates and money. Obama has a war chest in the $40 million range.

According to the CBS News delegate simulator, Obama leads Clinton in delegates - by a count of 1,844 to 1,688 - a difference of 156.
