There are really too many states. My head hurts from trying to keep track of all of this.
Help me.
Update: By the way, anyone able to find any data on Ken's "Security Vote"? If you haven't read the post, it's worth checking out. He basically argues that we should look out for Dem performance in the suburban areas around NYC where 9/11 led to big gains for the GOP. Progress there would mean progress in rolling back the Fear Vote.

This is a smart blog. I mean it. You have so much knowledge about this issue, and so much passion. You also know how to make people rally behind it, obviously from the responses. Youve got a design here thats not too flashy, but makes a statement as big as what youre saying. Great job,children health indeed.

I agree with Andrew. I will help him reduce the number of states.
Any state with a literacy rate below 85% is out.

If Obama gets CT, he's headed toward carrying at least half of the states.
What really matter, though, are the sizes of the various leads. We need a network to start doing some delegate

Hey all, I know everybody's saying that only delegates matter and that's right of course. But could this get so close that our nominee might not get a plurality of the popular vote? Won't that tick a lot of people off? Or does that happen all the time?

Just the default size 1440x900 on my MacBook Pro. Macs generally resolve fonts better than PCs, which might be the difference. Try using "ClearType" on Win if that's your system. Otherwise, if you're on a Mac, you could increase the resolution.

When Huckabee was referring to "Razorbacks" and "Cotton Bowls" he was talking about down south college football. I believe he pulled out "Roll Tide" referring to the Crimson Tide of Alabama.

WEll, I tried 3 times to make a comment and each time I got thrown off the site, so I guess I'll just turn this into a complaint about the aggravation of trying to participate in good faith to this freaking thread! Now I've forgotten what I was saying in the first place, but this probably won't get posted anyway.

In the early return states, which had either few or many delegates i.e. Delaware or New York, they have generally gone strongly in one direction or the other, for Obama or Clinton. And the delegate count between them has remained fairly close because of it. By picking up medium sized states by wide margins, such as the spread in Minnesota and Colorado, Obama might be able to outpace Clinton in the delegate count, if California ends up close.

What's interesting, from my cursory glance, is that the Edwards folks (myself included) tended to swing Obama.

In terms of the convention, not so much. If Edwards endorses or seems to be leaning in that direction, who knows? It couldn't hurt.

Concede what though? The night? I mean - they are still only 20 delegates apart in my book. That probably won't change again tonight, but it certainly will, for better or for worse for each campaign as they see it, over the coming weeks/months.

My last tally:

Blue rows are states that have essentially closed; red is otherwise. Green's somewhere in between.
My personal opinion is that Obama may come out ahead by a hair. CA could still break more to him resulting in more delegates total, but who knows.

Madison believed that we should have separation of church and state throughout the land, federal and local. There was a fascinating moment during the congressional debate over what became the First Amendment. How could the beloved First Amendment be harmful to religion? Huntington feared that it would overturn or interfere with Connecticut’s approach, which was to have state-supported religion.
