only 1,284 delegates to go!

well, according to last night's results: it's a mixed bag for my man obama. he won more states, and a wider variety of states (is that a legitimate category??) than hillary, but didn't get the landslide i was hoping for in california ... overall, i'm happy for him though, and i'm super-proud my home state of minnesota loves obama as much as i do: he won a pretty overwhelming caucus victory there, with still only 80% of votes tallied at 67% to clinton's 32%.

in general, if you read the slate article i link to above (see "mixed bag"), i think things are looking VERY awesome for obama. he's got the money and the time and the only scary thing is that his competition is going to be john mccain. who i was REALLY HOPING would NOT get the g.o.p. nod because i think despite being an old fart in favor of the war, he's actually somewhat respectable and smart and centrist (unlike the crazy mormon and the chuck norris sidekick). damn! it's like voters across the spectrum are wising up or something!

YES. WE. CAN.
