So this story had me ROTFLMAO (as the Web 2.0 kids say).
There seems to be a desire by the media to keep this race "tight", even though it really isn't. Look at this AP story on the final delegate counts from the Iowa caucuses.
DES MOINES, Iowa (AP) — Democrat Barack Obama expanded his fragile lead in delegates over rival Hillary Rodham Clinton on Saturday, picking up at least seven delegates as Iowa activists took the next step in picking delegates to the national convention...How is a 114 delegate advantage in mid-March a "fragile lead"? Sounds more like an "insurmountable lead" to me. As it stands now, Hillary Clinton's chance of winning the Democratic nomination is only slightly better Bush's chance of being elected to a third term.
Counting Iowa's results Saturday, an Associated Press delegate tally showed Obama with 1,610 delegates and Clinton with 1,496.
And they can both only be accomplished by changing the rules.
