Obama is claiming to have won more states and more delegates per this article in Politico:

The Obama campaign attached an Excel spreadsheet containing
“state-by-state estimates of the pledged delegates we won last night,
which total 845 for Obama and 836 for Clinton — bringing the to-date
total of delegates to 908 for Obama, 884 for Clinton.”

That article also had this GREAT comment from naragonl
on Politico. Funny I FORGOT all the reasons I don't "care" for Hillary.
This reminded me. Sure hope she does get the nomination:

Quote: interesting: Hillary Clinton has been telling America that she is the
most qualified candidate for president based on her 'record,' which she
says includes her eight years in the White House as First Lady - or
'co-president' - and her seven years in the Senate. Here is a reminder
of what that record includes: - As First Lady, Hillary assumed
authority over Health Care Reform, a process that cost the taxpayers
over $13 million. She told both Bill Bradley and Patrick Moynihan, key
votes needed to pass her legislation, that she would 'demonize' anyone
who opposed it. But it was opposed; she couldn't even get it to a vote
in a Congress controlled by her own party. (And in the next election,
her party lost control of both the House and Senate.) - Hillary assumed
authority over selecting a female Attorney General. Her first two
recommendations, Zoe Baird and Kimba Wood, were forced to withdraw
their names from consideration. She then chose Janet Reno. Janet Reno
has since been described by Bill himself as 'my worst mistake.' -
Hillary recommended Lani Guanier for head of the Civil Rights
Commission. When Guanier's radical views became known, her name had to
be withdrawn. - Hillary recommended her former law partners, Web
Hubbell, Vince Foster, and William Kennedy for positions in the Justice
Department, White House staff, and the Treasury, respectively. Hubbell
was later imprisoned, Foster committed suicide, and Kennedy was forced
to resign. - Hillary also recommended a close friend of the Clintons,
Craig Livingstone, for the position of director of White House
security. When Livingstone was investigated for the improper access of
up to 900 FBI files of Clinton enemies (“Filegate”) and the widespread
use of drugs by White House staff, both Hillary and her husband denied
knowing him. FBI agent Dennis Sculimbrene confirmed in a Senate
Judiciary Committee hearing in 1996, both the drug use and Hillary's
involvement in hiring Livingstone. After that, the FBI closed its White
House Liaison Office, after serving seven presidents for over thirty
years. - In order to open “slots” in the White House for her friends
the Thomasons (to whom millions of dollars in travel contracts could be
awarded), Hillary had the entire staff of the White House Travel Office
fired; they were reported to the FBI for 'gross mismanagement' and
their reputations ruined. After a thirty-month investigation, only one,
Billy Dale, was charged with a crime - mixing personal money with White
House funds when he cashed checks. The jury acquitted him in less than
two hours. - Another of Hil lary's assumed duties was directing the
'bimbo eruption squad' and scandal defense: ---- She urged her husband
not to settle the Paula Jones lawsuit. ---- She refused to release the
Whitewater documents, which led to the appointment of Ken Starr as
Special Prosecutor. After $80 million dollars of taxpayer money was
spent, Starr's investigation led to Monica Lewinsky, which led to Bill
lying about and later admitting his affairs. ---- Then they had to
settle with Paula Jones after all. ---- And Bill lost his law license
for lying to the grand jury ---- And Bill was impeached by the House.
---- And Hillary almost got herself indicted for perjury and
obstruction of justice (she avoided it mostly because she repeated, 'I
do not recall,' 'I have no recollection,' and 'I don't know' 56 times
under oath). - Hillary wrote 'It Takes a Village,' demonstrating her
Socialist viewpoint. - Hill ary decided to seek election to the Senate
in a state she had never lived in. Her husband pardoned FALN terrorists
in order to get Latino support and the New Square Hassidim to get
Jewish support. Hillary also had Bill pardon her brother's clients, for
a small fee, to get financial support. - Then Hillary left the White
House, but later had to return $200,000 in White House furniture,
china, and artwork she had stolen. - In the campaign for the Senate,
Hillary played the 'woman card' by portraying her opponent (Lazio) as a
bully picking on her. - Hillary's husband further protected her by
asking the National Archives to withhold from the public until 2012
many records of their time in the White House, including much of
Hillary's correspondence and her calendars. (There are ongoing lawsuits
to force the release of those records.) - As the junior Senator from
New York, Hillary has passed no major legislation. She has deferred to
the senior Senator (Schumer) to tend to the needs of New Yorkers, even
on the hot issue of medical problems of workers involved in the cleanup
of Ground Zero after 9/11. - Hillary's one notable vote; supporting the
plan to invade Iraq, she has since disavowed. Quite a resume’. Sounds
more like an organized crime family’s rap sheet.

The polls have been wrong plenty of times before and in fact Survey USA had Hillary ahead 42-32 while Zogby the same day had Obama ahead 49-36!

Also, California is often a let down for us in modern times. Seems like every presidential election we hear that California is in play for the GOP, only to have sKerry, Algore, Bubba, etc. win by 10 or more points.

And they did say Hillary won the vast hispanic vote there. (Could some of them have been illegals who weren't polled?)

 As for her tears part 2, I'm sure it made at least a small contribution. Every little bit helps, and everything Hillary does is calculated to win the WH. And she really did a good acting job on those tears and looking "touched" and "moved". They say she can't pull off what her "husband" did in terms of charisma and that is so true. But when it comes to tears, I think she ranks up there with him when he did that Ron Brown funeral crocodile moment for the camera.  

When Chelsea Clinton runs for POTUS, do you think she's going to claim passing out coffee at a polling place as political experience?

Interesting commentary in WSJ regarding media spin of Tet offensive during Vietnam.  I think it is easy to see this is the model and not much has changed.

Joseph Stalin said it best, "It's not who votes that counts, it's who counts the votes."

If McCain is the GOP nomination and it seems to be swinging that way, then he should pick Lieberman as VP.  That way he could siphon off some Dim votes.  Lieberman would not be a bad choice as they have about the same values and he is a principled man.  After all Lievberman is not a Dim any more, they threw him out.

Nuke em til they glow then shoot em in the dark.

Very funny bit on The Daily Show last night, looking at the different ways the networks tabbed yesterday's primaries, from Super Duper Tuesday to Tsunami Tuesday.

Alabama, Tennesee, Arkansas....

These three states gave their delegates to "God's Candidate" Huckabee ....

 .... and were then all hit by a tornado later that same day. 

 What do you religious types think about this? Coincidence? Or is God punishing those sacreligiously following a false prophet who uses God's name for his own selfish ends?

McCain's mother says that the Republican base will have to hold their noses and vote for her son.

"Asked if her son can go on to be the G.O.P.'s nominee, Roberta McCain said, "Yes, I think holding their nose they're going to have to take him."
