Delegate Count - RCP
RCP: Has Obama ahead by 5 delegates. Obama 1143, Clinton 1138. This Democratic Delegate mess needs one standard, seen so may different versions of the tally. But trust RCP one of the best Political Sites in the business.
Delegate Update 08
Fox News: Reports on the Delegate Count, Clinton is ahead by 28 Delegates. Clinton 1, 136 and Obama 1, 108. This could be a very long race.
Clinton Strategy and Virginia
The Politico: Reports on the Clinton Strategy to gain some delegates in Virginia. . This would prevent the Obama surge from overtaking her in the delegate count.
Gore Factor ?
New York Daily News: Looks at the prospects of an endorsement of Obama by Al Gore. It would be ultimate revenge for Gore, if had Clinton has not been impeached; Al Gore could have won the Presidency in 2000. Go Gore.
Review – Weekend Vote
The weekend voting in Louisiana, Nebraska, Washington, Maine, and the US Virgin Islands has been a sweep for Senator Obama. Clinton has placed a new Campaign Manger due to the losses of the weekend and the up coming losses on Tuesday. The question now is who has momentum, well that is easy that’s Obama, the next question who is going to win the nomination looking at the votes to come up, it can be argued that the Clinton Machine can not be counted out, on March 4th we have Ohio and Texas, perceived as good states for Clinton and then Pennsylvania on April 22nd. If Clinton can win most of the delegates of Ohio and Texas that would give her combined with Super Delegates just enough delegates to win the nomination. Thus it’s down to these two states. The Obama Camp needs to get close to the Clinton vote, win would be great but a lot of delegates would also be good. If Obama can get to the convention ahead in pledge delegates it would be hard for Clinton to use the Democratic Establishment to put her over, she cant win by one vote, that would be the vote of her husband who is a Super Delegate.
