The Democratic Race Past Tuesday

WSJ: Reports on the tougher race that is develping in the Democratic Race, the 3am call ad has had its effect, Obama Camp is getting its act together to go after the weak points in the Clinton record. It notes a fundamental point from the elections on Tuesday, " The fact that Tuesday's four-state, 370-delegate sweepstakes effectively yielded a draw underscored how difficult it will be for Sen. Clinton to catch Sen. Obama with just over 600 more pledged delegates to be won. " Texas is more complicated than first look, although Clinton won the popular vote, Obama with forty percent of the caucuses reporting is ahead by 56% to 44%. At the end of the day, Obama will come out with more delegates than Clinton. It could come down to Florida or Michigan if they have a re - vote. If no new vote then the Super Delegates and the back room deals. If the Clintons steal the election the 1968 Convention will look like happy hour.
