First, I am an Obama supporter. But this is what happened to the Clinton campaign. This is such an elementary mistake. I would be so PISSED if I was a Clinton supporter. I think campaign organization also shows what type of leader a candidate will be. Obama has campaigned like no other and I look forward to him leading our country like no other! P
"As aides looked over the campaign calendar, chief strategist Mark Penn confidently predicted that an early win in California would put
over the top because she would pick up all the state's 370 delegates. It sounded smart, but as every high school civics student now knows, Penn was wrong: Democrats, unlike the Republicans, apportion their delegates according to vote totals, rather than allowing any state to award them winner-take-all. Sitting nearby, veteran Democratic insider Harold M. Ickes, who had helped write those rules, was horrified -- and let Penn know it. "How can it possibly be," Ickes asked, "that the much vaunted chief strategist doesn't understand proportional allocation?" And yet the strategy remained the same, with the campaign making its bet on big-state victories."
