2. It may still be changing based on the numbers coming in but still
There is no front runner.

5. There is confusion because of Iowa
Edwards beat Hillary but because of a quirk in the rules Hillary got one more delegate than him. That is why the accurate numbers are 25-24-18.

11. Oh ok... gotta love the electoral college.
Can I be the first to come out against it in 2008? I hope so.

4. At this point, already-pledged "superdelegates" probably give Clinton a huge lead...
...and tonight's results will be a giant step in keeping them from jumping ship.

9. But Kerry had Kennedy
That carries a huge amount of favors with it. Obama doesn't have that, and if he was expected to get it tomorrow, I don't think he's going to now.

7. I don't think he can overcome that
I think it was going to take an obvious steamroll to overcome those super delegates and it's not going to be there. All the endorsements that he was looking to get aren't going to be there. African American voters are going to remain hesitant. I really don't know how he is going to break out of this.

13. Because of a 2% loss in NH??
Get real. Not nearly over yet, hang in there. The superdelegates can change, and I know there are millions of Obama voters just waiting to go to the primaries.
