I'll bet we see a lot more of this sort of stuff.

On the D side, Momentum seems to have shifted to Obama.
Now nearly tied in delegates, Obama trounced Clinton by 60-40 and
70-30 margins in three very states spread all across the country
yesterday.

She's now beginning to imitate his oratical style, a sure sign that
she knows she's in serious trouble. It's hilarious to watch her
flailing her arms around and adjusting her modulation and phrasing to
imitate Barack.

Huckabee is drawing support from fundamentalists who want to see a
preacher in the WH and from R's who would rather vote for *anybody*
except McCain. Obamba/McCain would be a horse race, Obama/Huckabee
would be a lopsided victory for the D's (IMO). But it's too late for
Huckabee. I saw an analysis revealing that if Huckabee wins the R
primaries and caucuses in *every* remaining state with a plurality in
the low 50's, McCain still gets enough delegates from the apportioned
states to nail the nomination on the first R ballot. Huck needs to win
every "winner-take-all" state and *smoke* McCain in the apportioned
states to have a chance, and it's too late.

It's an interesting process. No matter what, any of the final
contenders will be a giant step up from the current POTUS.

I think we'll soon see what 1 or 2 "third parties" have to offer as
well.

I'll be voting for Obama on Tuesday.
