You got to give props when they are due. Hilary clinton and her campaign made a huge comeback last night and somehow stopped the Obamania momentum. After losing 12 in a row, she broke out with huge wins in Rhode Island, Ohio and Texas. The news cycle of course is Clinton winning three states out of 4, but what they don't tell you is that she's still behind in the delegates count and it's almost impossible for her to catch up. Her camapaign is definitely going to drag this one all the way to Denver at the Convention it's going to be nasty and harmful to the party. The party is going to be divided and super delegates are going to decide the outcome. Obviously each camp is going to claim they deserve the nomination, Hilary because she won the big states and Obama because he won the popular and delegate vote. Expect pretty soon the wisemen of the party to step up and have the two parties come to a compromise because the Republicans have their nominee already and he needs an opponent quick. The sooner the better.
Hilary is already hinting to a dream ticket and of course they both disagree on who should be on top.
The past two weeks were tough on Obama, looks like the media finally decided to get on his case and he was the subject of 69% of the news cycle. All media outlets somehow decided it was time to dig some up about him after they were ridiculed in Saturday Night Live. SNL claims journalists are going soft on him, so that hurt him including the NAFTA talk with Canadian officials, the negative ads and the picture of him in a traditional Somali outfit (raising concerns about his religion, which Clinton did not help diffused)
Anyway, we have a ball game and it's going to be interesting, Obama is supposed to win all the contests up until Pennsylvania (04/22) so we'll see how both camps play this stretch out.
