Obama needs 211 more pledged delegates to get a majority of PDs, so ...
Edited on Fri Apr-18-08 05:55 PM by ORDem
By my (very rough) back of the envelope calculations:

Loses PA by a little
Splits Guam
Handily wins NC
Loses Indiana (little to a little bit more)
Blown out in WV
etc., etc.

It looks to me like he hits that mark on May 20th when KY and OR both have their primaries. Since he'll likely lose KY, I think that Oregon should get the credit for putting him over the top!! ;)

:woohoo:

4. We have until April 29 to register DEMS
I hope everybody understands they have to register as a Dem to vote.

8. I think he'll win Indiana in a close one too--and North Carolina
by a lot.

7. I have a feeling that if he keeps it very close in PA, the Superdelegates will start to stampede in
his direction. And that will be that.
