    Sorry to interject in this crap, but CNN's delegate count has Obama down by just 12 now.
     

  2. No.
    But I didn't agree with you so much as explained to you what the issue was about since you plainly didn't know.
    Take your neuroses to someone who gives a damn.\
    Based on what, spup?

    And MSNBC (which hasn't been factoring superdelegates) has Obama ahead by 80
     
  4. Again, based on what?
    Is that speculation based on what might happen tonight, or is that the status quo going into tonight?

    MSNBC has the only count that matters. Delegates earned through voting will decide the nominee.

    You asked me how I saw the quote playing into Rendell's stated goals (as stated by you) and I provided an honest answer. And I didn't describe anyone's thought process. Rather, I described in a factual way what Obamaphiles have already stated on this thread.

    If you had asked me to play the conjecture game and said, "Suppose for a moment that it was Ed Rendell who brought up the topic of how voters in xxx section of the state would vote in the primary," then I might have been able to come up with some sinister motivation in way of theory. However, that wasn't your question.

    CNN.com is including superdelegates and I'm not sure MSNBC is. It's including the delegate numbers that have been updating for the last week, fen.

    Obama needs to win it on both fronts. Like it or not, the superdelegates will have a role in this nomination and while he may not get the majority of them, he needs to keep it close enough that his pledged delegates will put him over the top if he wants to win.

    I'm sure some of this bullshit is an answer to some question, just not to mine.

    You can think a while if it helps.

    I'll let the post comparing your "thoughts" with the ones Mike Fish had published under his byline this morning speak for itself.
