Even better, apparently Edwards is running a close second to Mr. Lynch.
Yeah, noticed that too.. and on the Republican side more than one state has Keyes listed.
Idaho with 22% in going for Obama 75/24.
CNN calls Minnesota for Obama.

I've had enough of these damn biblical references.
If he's anywhere on the Republican ticket, I will go no where near it.
It would not surprise me if you probably use biblical references without even knowing it. There are many many everyday phrases that are used, that most people would not suspect came from the Bible. Huckabee is a preacher, so this is the language he uses, it isn't necessarily trumped up.
I'm pretty cautious about my speech. I've purposefully tried to remove all religious references from my speech.
I don't think it's trumped up, but I still don't want to hear it for the next 4 years.
Clearly you are not a Bob Dylan fan, maporsche. It's obvious what the folk musician Mike Huckabee was hinting at .... <drums, ... brass band...>

Preliminary polls had Clinton +3

Right now it looks like Obama is definitely going to remain with the 100 delegate range they were aiming for.
Missouri is still very close.
Beancounters will be in hog haven for the next week, trying to figure out the delegate counts for each precinct and state.
Thomas, I'd like to think he wasn't talking about the bible.
But alas, it has David vs. Goliath all over it, especially in this context.

And I'm sorry if I didn't accurately read the sarcasm.

I'd call that wishful thinking.
A 9 point lead with less than one third of the votes to go is huge.
I've analyzed enough elections to call it for Clinton.
I found a link to the California SOS vote count results:

The handwritings on the wall, maporsche, you will be hearing whichever Democratic candidate wins, Hillary or Obama, they will be speaking in black churches all over the south and quoting bible verses, count on it.

Well, at the time I wrote the post they were within a couple percentage points of each other. The margin has grown since then so now maybe the result will be called for Clinton.

I know okie, I know all to well. It is the single most disgusting aspect of our politics today (IMO).
That does not mean I want to see the preacher in the WH.
Last time MO came in really late at the end, bad weather.
But it's hard to see Obama coming back by that much.

Polls closed in CA! Here we go...
