With 99% of the vote counted in Pennsylvania, the NY Times is showing a Clinton lead of 9.4%. With only 7 counties not reporting 100%, and all but one of those already at 98 or 99%, it's looking like Obama...more »

Dirty Tricksters Plant a Virus on BO.com
I actually find this kind of amusing, since it was a benign attack. I didn't try to log into Obama's blog site today, but apparently a trickster managed to post some code that was redirecting visitors over to HRC's site. ...more »

Reaping What is Sowed: Maliki’s “Political Solution”
I won’t pretend to have any expert knowledge of the situation in Iraq today, but it seems pretty clear that the history of the conflict since 2003 has made the recent events in Basra pathetically predictable. Take what’s reported in...more »

Yeah, gaming TPM's user name mechanism has been an interesting way to defuse the real trolls. How many faux gotalife's have we seen? Then there's the satirists... I loved PistonMoaned's GoatLife sock puppet. ;-)

Thanks for the link. That's pretty entertaining. Copy-paste talking points. All the salience, none of the sentience.

Sigh... the venom cut both ways, and don't hold your breath looking for something in the way of contrition and apologies. Obama supporters can only point out the core Democratic values we share and encourage Hillary supporters to vote on the issues in the fall. I voted in Nevada, early in the process, and did so based on who I felt would be a better leader. All that was before the "kitchen sink" strategy deployed by the Clinton campaign. I'm not asking for any apologies from Clinton supporters about the way she ran her campaign, or how some have been trashing Obama for months. I'll assume we're all going to put the darker moments of the primary campaign behind us and vote based on the values we share as citizens. And you?

Eh? Why do you need a link? Just do the math. Take the total delegates, remove FL and MI and divide by 2. There's several other scenarios out there and hopefully after May 31 we'll know the new number. Here's the possibilities, as compiled by DemConWatch.
I don't think there's any question the "magic number" will change after 5/31. But by that time, Obama will very likely have accumulated enough SDs that when you add in the delegates he will take from MI and FL, he'll be close to or over the new magic number.

Is it vengeful to wish HRC off the ticket? Vengeance comes in many flavors. For some newly minted McCain voters, it will prolly taste pretty good leftover and cold. The unreachable will be a fact to ignore or to analyze at our expense.

Neither Gravel nor Edwards is a SD. Kucinich is, and he'll declare for Obama after June 3. The only alternative would be for Kucinich to withhold his vote at the convention, which seems unlikely. Biden will come out for Obama, too. Just a matter of when at this point... ;-)

Nada. Just standing in the winner circle is enough. At least he doesn't have to backpedal away from a foiled HRC endorsement.

The timing is helpful. It signals the race truly is over. If indeed he lacked the courage to make a call, today's nod signals the inevitable. It's a good example for SDs who are waiting for yet another big name to make an endorsement a safe bet, especially those in the region. Could this help the WV SDs come out, e.g.?
