Bush's ability to make liberals assume the fetal position and writhe in pain is what I like the most about him.

After Bush, that's an easy call.


Not really. I agree that of the entire slate of nominees on both sides, the two most deserving got their party's nomination. While I much prefer Obama to McCain, I much prefer McCain to Romney or Huckabee or Thompson or... So it's definitely a nice change of pace right there, and I think it says good things about the electorate.

As expected, the superdel endorsements rolled in when I was out -- First Read has him 27.5 away from the nomination. This might be a very nice day. :-D

Aw, take a break CJ - the President of the United States is supposed to have that effect on the goddamn ENEMY. That just ain't Bear, no matter how much you or I disagree with him.

Quote:
Obama Supdelegate Endorsements Flooding In

By Jonathan Weisman
A rush of superdelegates, some already public, others promised for tonight, are pushing Illinois Sen. Barack Obama close to the Democratic nomination, with Obama aides saying they expect to clinch tonight after the results from South Dakota and Montana roll in.

Thirteen superdelegates have already announced their endorsements, including the highest ranking House leader to take sides, House Majority Whip James Clyburn (D-S.C.), the chairman of the Congressional Black Caucus, Rep. Carolyn Cheeks Kilpatrick (D-Mich.) and Debbie Dingell, a General Motors official and wife of Energy and Commerce Committee Chairman and Hillary Clinton supporter John Dingell (D-Mich.). House Budget Committee Chairman John Spratt (D-S.C.) also backed Obama this afternoon.

Montana's two senators, Max Baucus and Jon Tester, as well as the state's governor, Brian Schweitzer, are expected to announce their endorsements once the polls close in their state.
"Today ends the process," Clyburn said in an interview this afternoon, predicting that 20 superdelegates will have publicly endorsed Obama by 7 p.m. "The way we treat each other from here until August could very well determine how we do in November."

Are you a fortune teller? If not, I would advise you to wait and see. Sometimes not every product performs as advertised. It could be a lemon, Bill.

Bush has earned respect. You may not agree with him, but my bets are that Bush is respected, even when people don't vote for him or even admit it. It is becoming evident by the day that many Bill Clinton voters do not respect him, and probably never did.

I took it as more of an affirmation, okie. Cool

Yup, respect with a 28 percent approval rating from Americans. Do you understand polls or math, okie?

I'm going to try something... I got an email from the Obama campaign that has a graphic with how many delegates he still needs to get the nomination. It automatically updates. (When I first got the email it was something like 35 -- now it's 29.) (It was 30 very recently, I don't know who the new superdel is yet.)

Anyway, seeing if I can replicate it (automatic updates and all) here:

I got the graphic but dunno if it'll update.

Sure hope he clinches tonight... superdel trickle seems to have slowed. Clyburn was saying something about 20 by 7 PM -- 11 so far...

Anyone know WHEN Obama's big speech will be? The email, as the graphic shows, is urging people to tune in but all it says is that polls close in Montana at 10 PM EST. Presumably after that, but...? (I SO want to see it, especially if he really-truly clinches, but that's getting really late for me. I'm still going to try to see it -- put the kid to bed and sneak back down maybe. Just sitting there for hours hoping the speech will come on any minute won't work though.)

Kos reported earlier that all 5 of Montana's outstanding S-D's will go for Obama tonight after the polls close there. So there's another 5 for ya. My guess is that we'll see a few more this evening, to put him over the top.

He's due to speak at 10 et...

Oh, thanks! Do you know that for sure? Not just "after polls close"?

10 ET would be doable.

Sorry but that's all I read. It's entirely likely that he will run a little late, 'specially if the polls are really close in SD.

Yay! Laughing What a good day

Yep. I have always liked McCain for all the reasons the Republicans don't. This is win, win for me, for the first time in my life. A wonderful change from the lose, lose last cycle!
