1. I can see it.

I think Missouri will be a toss-up, but ya' never know.

I'd also give Delaware to Obama.

3. This looks very plausible to me. I love the grahic, mathewsleep. And the
prediction could be realized, too.

8. mathewsleep, I would love to make some, but every one I've made so far
this primary season has been wrong.

Also I blew the Super Bowl prediction.

A generous offer, but I'm having more problems in the good-luck department this year than Tom Tancredo!

9. my original ones were way off.
i thought it would come down to clinton-edwards one on one. though i was rooting for obama, i didn't think he'd do very good.
i'm glad to be wrong about that.
but it sucks i was wrong about edwards doing better. this really should have been a three man race.

10. Well, you're still far ahead of me on predictions. Agree with you on
Obama -- for a moment there his campaign seemed to falter but these last several days it's roaring back.

I think he might have himself a really good night tonight.

4. That follows the latest odds
posted here -> http://rasmussenreports.com/public_content/politics/election_20082/2008_presidential_election/rasmussen_markets_democratic_presidential_primaries

pretty closely. Not much of a gamble there. It's the delegate count that's really the big story tonight. Win/lose is a secondary story.

6. yeah i know
delegates are what matters. as arizona has shown, the winner isn't necessarily the real winner.

12. This map is biased and inaccurate
By failing to account for the curvature of the Earth, the projection of this map onto a two dimensional surface makes Montana and other northern states seem much larger than they are. What's worse, this map locates Alaska off the southern California coast and places Hawaii inthe middle of the Baja Peninsula.

How can I trust this when it's diplaying such deliberate distortions?

15. MN will be close
Last week, Clinton was 7 points ahead-- but that was before Obama filled the 20,000-seat Target Center with a Saturday rally.
