The Amazing Race Continues
March 5th, 2008Hillary Clinton won Texas, Ohio and Rhode Island tonight. It was a remarkable electoral comeback for her but she still has an uphill battle to win the nomination, especially with superdelegates who might be embarrassed to rob Barack Obama of the popular vote and appropriately-delegated delegate totals. It is important to note that the race is becoming tighter and it could become quite contentious if the Senator from New York is allowed to seat her delegates from Michigan and Florida. I expect her to win Pennsylvania, as that is a traditionally strong Clinton state, but we will have to wait and see what happens with the other states, superdelegates and perhaps the assembled at the convention. Could it truly be that a brokered convention is about to unfold? I’ve long believed that the 2008 election would be an historical marvel but it might well wind up exceeding every thought I’ve had and have. Tonight, I celebrated with the Clinton campaign on the northside of Chicago. Tomorrow, we wait and see.
