Ok I admit it - I was pretty busy at work and haven't been able to follow the news. And yeah our family budget's too tight for us to afford cable so I haven't been getting a steady diet of BS from MSNBO. And I did have a meeting to go to after work so I'm just now getting on line really, but I've got a question for you guys and I'm hoping you can help me out...

Have things changed THAT much over the past 24 hours? Were there some primaries yesterday or today that I didn't know about and did Hillary lose that badly? Because the way Pat Leahy's talking today you'd think Hillary were suddenly a good 20 or 25% behind Obama in the delegate race here, instead of a shade shy of 1%.

No?

No primaries?

Ya mean they're still just one percent apart in this delegate thing?

Cool.



Then can someone puhlease explain why the hell

1. Are they counting MI and FL delagates or just using %'s to distort reality?

2. So if they end up 1 percent apart (which they will)... then nobody should win?
Your logic is faulty. They are not even. In votes or delegates.

3. 1%?
Obama is ahead 6.4 percentage points in pledged delegates and 4.4 percentage points in total delegates. http://www.cnn.com/ELECTION/2008

1%? Did you just make that up?
