This election is confusing, frustrating.
So, Hillary won Pennsylvania by 10%, right. But the NY Times says she only picked up 1 delegate. Who knows how that works.
Ok, so Obama leads Hillary by 148 delegates, right? Not so fast. Hillary is saying she’s ahead. Sure, she’ll need to count two states that were not supposed to be counted in the first place. And that Hillary didn’t really care about until she saw her lead slip away.
Then you have Daily KOS saying that Obama needs only 43 additional superdelegates to clinch.
Sigh…this shit makes we wish I was still looking at TJFKAK’s cute cat pictures.
But really, as much as dems bitch about Bush stealing Florida and hanging chads or what not, they really managed to fuck this one up.
The whole delegate/super delegate thing is ridiculous. With about 500 of these superdelegates, some of which are like 20 year old kids, there is really no way there will be a winner until the democratic primary.
That’s gay.
In the meantime Obama’s double digit lead over McCain has disappeared. And as Hillary and Obama swipe at each other over the next few months it’s likely that by the time the general election comes the democratic nominee will be lucky to be ahead of Nader, much less McCain.
Oh well. At least the playoffs are on now.
