I liked the "We are the ones we've been waiting for" line. Even a subpar Obama speech is better than anything else I have heard tonight.

I'm going to whore myself out as the "white guy for the white guys" in the background of all future Obama speeches. That one guy was in prime real estate. But I could do better.

I enjoyed it. But I would say the schedule has been obvious in the general energy level of the candidates.

The early numbers for Cali are not looking good for Obama, but there is a long way to go. Obama has had a good night, but it was nothing like those exit poll results that were posted earlier. It will be interesting to see what the delegate count is tomorrow.

CNN analyst...
"Hillary carried everybody who makes less than 50K per year
Obama carried everybody who makes more than 50K per year"
Obama clearly dominating the intellectual vote...very frusterating...our votes should count twice as much damnit.

I heard Begala's remark. I must admit I'm a bit confused how he says that considering the very exit polls CNN has been posting all night long. Obama >80% for African-Americans, Clinton carried the Latino vote, in most states Clinton carried the white vote.

It's all about the delegate counts at this point. It would have been great for him to win the popular vote, but he can still do really well in the # of delegates.I'm psyched about the Mizzou turnaround.#### Cali....

How much race is there to split on the Republican side? I'm curious to see how hard conservative pundits hit this. Seems like it's a trap for them.

Which is it? Missouri will basically break even on delegates. Either it's a big win and California is a disappointment or the net delegate count won't be that bad for Obama when factoring in California and Missouri.

Good point.
On the Rep side is more about level of redneckness, look at Huckabee in the southern states.

Yea. It's not like there are any Asians, Indians, Cubans, etc. who vote for Republicans.

I hope every Democrat was paying attention when Ari Fleischer was on CNN telling everyone that the Republicans and "Praying every night" that they get to face Hillary in the General Election.
California is going to tighten up and the delegates will split evenly. The number of states that Obama won tonight makes it clear which way the wind is blowing.

I wondered that myself. All over the county by county maps Obama has drawn massive support from the large cities where I would suspect those that actually live are lower income. Maybe my assumption was wrong but that one confused me.

Hell Bush got 44% of the latino vote in 2004. I don't think they count though. Not brown enough.

the upperclass Dems are getting it, it's the lowerclasses that aren't.
I hope you're right.

Because of the unique mechanics of this, it can be both. Obama is going to be trailing in delegates. He's going to need to tell a story. The story to tell is that he won 12 or however many primaries. At the same time, that story wouldn't have mattered if this had been a winner take all event and he had lost Mass, NY, NJ, and California. By the same token, if Barack had lost every primary by only 2 or 3 percentage points, then maybe he would be still competitive on delegates. But Clinton could tell a very compelling story about momentum. That she won 22 primaries.Despite what was being reported after Iowa, Obama has to win this thing in the fourth quarter if he's going to do it. It looks like he'll at least be in the game.It's all about the delegate counts at this point.

McCain's in the winner's circle already. That Romney couldn't capitalize on the dislike for McCain with conservatives in the South ended his chances. Huckabee is more a regional than a national candidate.
