The "Race" to Super Tuesday


Well folks, we are approaching the 48 hour mark.


Keeps your fingers crossed for a Obama "victory" on Super Tuesday. A new poll indicates a "dead heat" between Clinton and Obama in the delegate pot of gold state, CALIFORNIA. At this point it really isn't a question of "if" Obama has the capability of beating Clinton, it's a question of if he can do it by Tuesday. Huff Post's Marc Cooper says it best, "Barack Obama has only one enemy left standing and it's not Hillary Clinton. It's time itself. All the evidence is in: the more that voters are exposed to Obama, the more they flock to him. The more they see Hillary Clinton, the more stagnant her numbers." Does Obama have enough time left? I guess we'll find out on Tuesday.

But remember, even if Clinton comes out on top on Tuesday, unless the gap is so severe that Obama's nomination is no longer possible (and I seriously doubt this will be the case) he can still win the nomination by sweeping the post-Super Tuesday primaries of Louisiana, Maryland, Virginia and Washington, D.C. (all of which will have HUGE African American voting blocks). It's going be a fight to the finish.

In other related news, musical sensation and fellow Huffingtonpost.com blogger Will.I.AM. discusses his motivation for re- recording Barack Obama's New Hamsphire concession speech ("Yes We Can"). See here.


And oh yeah, the Obama team brought Oprah back out today. Good move.
