maybe i’ll get some….
end of thread.
I predict the Thai food I had last night will be tough on my analysis ability.
uh oh ohio.
…a riot?
i hope that link of yours turns out to be true, matt…
Jesus Christ, now this shit is going to drag out. Not only are we going to have to hear about this in the national media, but the local media as the candidate invade PA for the next 7 weeks. I was hoping it would end tonight, but I had a feeling it wouldn’t.
I think that Clinton staying in the race despite not being able to catch up to Obama’s delegates has caused too much damage. She’s basically given McCain a blueprint for how to attack Obama should he be the nominee. And if she somehow convinces the super delegates to vote for her despite not having the majority of elected delegates, it’s Al Gore 2000 all over again. Only this time it’s within the party. All of the new and active people interested in politics are going to feel like it doesn’t matter what you do, someone else is going to decide who is elected. So why even vote in the national election?

I’ve felt like that ever since I heard about the electoral college.
You hit the nail square on the head bill.
Can someone verify this post on Obama’s site claiming that Obama actually managed to turn out a delegate victory in Texas:

Barak apparently has another 50 superdelegates coming his way sometime this week:

If these are both true, the race is over and Clinton should stop trying to hand the republicans another election by going negative and quit the race.
The always-awesome electoral-vote.com has a breakdown of districts in Texas, who won what, and the upcoming caucus results.
Apparently, Obama will come out of Texas with a net gain in pledged delegates. Awesome!
