***** Official Prediction Thread *****
Five stars means it's official.

Here goes...

Clinton 48
Obama 46

I'd love to see Obama win this one and put it away, but I'm guessing we won't be so lucky. If he keeps it within 7 points, I'll be content. Anyone else care to make a prediction?

1. My prediction- Clinton will not get the 102% she needs to tie Obama.
Nor will she get the 65% she needs to be on pace.

Any delegate gain she acquires will be lost by, if not before, North Carolina.

5. Oh boy! My fourth -- or is it fifth -- official prediction thread
I'll say Obama over Clinton 52-48% in this one. I'm bound to be close to correct in one of these threads and so the one I'm correct in will be the one I refer to showing my amazing prescience. :D

12. Actual votes intended by voters: Obama 53, Hillary 46, Edwards 1
Resulting tally after voting machine 'anomalies': Obama 49, Hillary 51, Edwards 1.

(Yeah, it comes to 101%. Take it to SC if you want.)
