GObama!

I went to bed hearing Obama was ahead in Tuesday’s delegate count and I woke up to the exact opposite. I’m grumpy and I’ve got a long, sure-to-be annoying day at work ahead of me. If Ricki Lieberman, who keeps spamming me (after two polite requests to be removed from her mailing list) with crazeeeee-colored, goo-laced pro-Hillary emails (”Decision making: With thanks to Tina Turner - She’s the best, Simply Better than All the Rest...”), sends me another “GO HILLARY!!!” email today I hope she really enjoys the stills from the ”2 Girls 1 Cup” video she’s going to find clogging up her Gmail account.

On a more serious note, I think Obama’s still in it, but he’s got to have nearly everything go his way in the upcoming primaries and caucuses to overcome Hillary’s super delegate lead (and don’t forget her surefire shameless attempt to seat her Michigan and Florida delegates). If not, say hello to President McCain. I’ll post more info as I find it.

MORE: Good christ, do I loathe Hillshills.

JUST ON MSNBC: Chuck Todd just said that Hillary is currently up by 70 delegates, including committed super delegates.  That spells good news for Obama in the next couple of rounds of voting where he’s sure to substantially whittle away at her lead, but he’s got to pull off a March 4th win in Texas or Ohio if he doesn’t want Hillary to lock this up.

You can forget Texas, he hasn’t got a shot in hell there outside of Austin and parts of E. Texas.  He needs to concentrate on Ohio and everywhere else.  If Molly Ivans and Ann Richards were still alive I’d give him the state in a runaway but, alas, they have gone to the great Shrub hunting ground in the sky.
