And Its Obama
Wednesday, February 20, 2008
Last nite Obama adding to his winning streak and as of now is up to 10 in a row. Looking at the map, Obama has 24 states to Hillary's 11. Ignore the 13 because every map still includes Michigan and Florida in her win column. So you have one person who has swept across the country picking up wins in all areas and demographics but somehow we should discount this and give it to Hillary who has only won the "Big" states. The win in New Mexico really isn't much of a win since the margin is less than 1% but since Hill is so far down in the state count she can have it.
According to CNN here are the latest breakdowns of delegates and super delegate counts. Obama is in the lead in both but for now we should really just concentrate on pledged since the supers can change come the convention. Obama also wins in the popular vote and I expect that column to continue growing. Even when Florida and Michigan are factored in, Obama still has more votes.
I have been reading postings and comments over at www.taylormarsh.com and it blows me away that these are democrats. Taylor is a huge Clinton supporter and most of her blog bashes Obama on a daily basis. The comments are quite funny tho, there are plenty of nutballs who call Obama a sexist pig and refuse to support him. They are in some dillusional world that somehow Hillary will pull this off. They ignore the numbers and push on with dead stories that they believe somehow tarnish Obama. I am not saying that Obama doesn't have the same nutballs but Hillary's people are quite scary. The latest uproar is over Obama's "Bigfooting" Hillary during her so called concession speech. Sorry folks, it was the 2nd time Hillary refused to congratulate so why let her drone on and on?
