It was by a small margin, of course. I doubt it's enough to set a clear-cut winner for the Democrats, but it was enough to shake my confidence Obama would be winning, if by a small margin himself.

It also shakes my confidence that we'll have a Democratic president in 2008. Although the pundits say she'll need a big win in order to beat Obama. Is Obama still ahead in delegates? -CSM

Clinton wins Pennsylvania--continues to not have enough delegates.

Seriously. She'll do one thing, and only one thing, if anything: Prevent a Democrat from winning.

Hillary is like a cockroach. She just won't go away. The longer she sticks around, the more damage she does to the Democratic party.

^ Ugh. Seriously.

This really isn't that impressive of a win. She won by 10 percentage points give or take the margin of error on these poll thingies, and if I'm not mistaken she started out with a 20 point lead and an endorsement from the state's governor. I still think Obama will eventually win the nomination, but I can't see this helping the Dems as a whole.

And that's my political commentary for the year, be back in 365 days.

Whoever wins, I can't stand McCain. He sounds like a moderate, but the only thing he's willing to do is listen. He wants to keep the Iraq war going, and he wants to continue these tax cuts to the super rich that are destroying the economy. I don't know what his relationship with big oil is but I want to prepare for the worst.

This is directed at ZG in particular: Remember Prop 106 or 107 (aka the Arizona anti-gay marriage amendment that failed last time)? Well, it's back again, and McCain is the chair of the committee to get it passed. It doesn't matter who you vote for, ZG, but this time you actually have the power to stop the amendment. -CSM
