It Never Ends

So. 10 point victory, pick up of 15 or so delegates for HRC. We are… exactly where we were a week ago. Good times.
Actually, there is one big difference, which is that Hillary is about 200,000 votes closer in the popular vote total. Obama’s campaign should make it a priority to run up the score [...]
The Call

3% in, MSNBC calls for HRC.
No surprise. Waiting for the harder numbers.
Fortunately, now I can switch back to Lannan for a bit. (Manny just sent him up to bat in the top of the 7th, so he’s got another the bottom of the 7th to try and hold the 1-0 lead.)

And, yes, I think the conventional wisdom which has the race continuing to North Carolina and Indiana with Obama needing to win both to knock Hillary out of the race is correct.

The Politico’s analysis of new Democratic registrations in Pennsylvania lead it to the conclusion that those new Democrats could significantly improve Obama’s performance tomorrow. I’m not questioning any of the specifics in their analysis, but I do feel like we’ve heard this story before. Weren’t newly registered Dems and early turnout in urban regions and [...]
Yes We Can

This is part of my reason for supporting Barack Obama. It’s not my best reason, and it’s certainly not my only reason. But I truly believe it is a good reason.
It wasn’t so much that Barack Obama had real fight in him tonight, or that more people attended his rally in front of Independence Hall [...]
