Obama Won Last Night But Is Still Down.

It's amazaing it seems as if obama is winning more states but he is still down in delegates.

I can only guess that's because they are including delegates from Clinton' wins in Florida and Michigan, which at this point they shouldn't be. Perhaps someone can confirm.

They are not counting Florida or Michigan. She has simply won the states with the bigger amount of delegates, so her count reflects that so far. Obama will catch up!

You can look at the state-by-state counts here:

Its because the Clintons won states with the most delegates (NY and CA) and she also has more super delegates.

This race will go on but i believe Obama will prevail

Obama has MORE delegates than clinton. 1009 Obama to 944 clinton. (Tim Russerts numbers Meet the Press 2/10/07) CNN and others are playing games with perceived support from super delegates. The super delegates role was not intended to play spoiler. They are there to provide unity for the party when shit like this happens. They need to keep out of the discussion of who and what in this election.

Barack Obama swept the Virgin Islands, Lousiana, & Washington. This will be a tight race all the way.

There are so many people confused by this issue this post right here needs to be a sticky. Don't let the news fool you Obama is winning the delegates, the votes and the states. If the rest of the country knew he had a sizable lead it would effect the outcome but the news wants it to remain "close" for ratings
