Anybody else ecstatic that we essentially had a tie tonight?
Assuming that Clinton carries Missouri and California, that's where we're headed isn't it? The rest of the states get to be heard after all!

PLEASE let my vote on May 6th be worth something! :P

16. I am so gloriously happy to see
the bush/clinton/bush/clinton

sweat a bit.
in the end she will be crowned. it's in the cards.
but I am so appreciative of a movement of the people. Obama being the tinderbox.

25. but being the suspicious mind
why was Barack allowed in the race at all to challenge the Kings and Queens? (because we all know there are only certain people allowed)

just something my partner and I were talking about.

8. I am ecstatic with you, Seen. We have two wonderful candidates who are both very impressive.
In Oregon, we vote in May using a mail-in system.

We're watching from the sidelines, but I'm sure there will be lots of votes for ???? anybody with a (D) after their name!!!

10. Very happy. And the pubs won't have a real clear frontrunner either.
Although McCain will have a substantial lead.

11. Nope. Clinton has the Dem establishment. That has to be factored in.
Superdelegates.

I think it will be tough for Obama - who I support - if he doesn't take California.

17. Asians and Latinos supporting Hillary in California by a big margin.
Blacks supporting Obama. That's got to be a tough choice, especially for black women.

24. Well, that could be it. If it is, then the Hillary backers better mend fences.
And fast. I would say that if the shoe was on the other foot (as it still could be). Hillary can't win without the black vote, and Obama can't win without white women. Period.

12. Oh, absolutely ...

Maintains interest at least, and quite frankly, while I have my druthers, I'm not gonna cry no matter who gets the nomination.

18. As an arm-chair political junkie, I like it
The conventional wisdom is that a tie tonight is not great news for Hillary though, but is good news for Obama, because he has more money, and can more easily raise more money. However, I don't know if the Clintons can self-fund like Romney can.

21. Count me in
I just wished that Biden, Dodd, Edwards and Richardson were still in the race.

Would have made it so much more interesting and better representative.
