"Oh when the saints! Go marching in! When the triangulators get their due!"

I'll play air triangle on this one. Please join in to let Penn and Clinton hear.

5. You are counting superdelegates......
and those might be changing as we speak.

In "earned" delegates, Obama is ahead.

6. No I'm not
I'm not counting anything.

CNN is - not me. CNN.

Sorry if you didn't catch that the first time.

But CNN is. Not me.

11. Well that's what you are doing, even if you don't know it.....
here's the delegate count MINUS the super delegated (i.e., just congresscritters endorsing)

Delegate Count
State Date Delegates Clinton Obama Edwards
Total - - 246 173 52

Super Delegates - 463 201 116 32

Iowa 01/03 57 15 16 14

New Hampshire 01/08 30 9 9 4

Michigan 01/15 0 * - - -

Nevada 01/19 33 12 13 -

South Carolina 01/26 54 9 19 2

2,025 Delegates Needed to Win (Delegate Counts Come From AP, Wash Post, ABC News & RCP)
http://www.realclearpolitics.com/epolls/2008/president/delegate_counts.html

When you remove the 201 congress critter in Hillary's pocket, the delegate count on earned votes for her are 45

Obama has 116 congress critters in his pocket, and his earned delegate count is 56.

This is about to change, because Obama is going to get more endorsement after this last win.

12. Only a progressive belongs in the white house.
Unless Sen. Clinton condemns the racially-charged comments of her husband, I cannot see that she can be considered a progressive.
