The kid's got alligator blood
Super Duper Mega Monster Tuesday and come and gone, and as usual, my predictions were slightly off. Hillary Clinton had been viewing Super Tuesday as the day she would finally be able to put some distance between her and Barack Obama, but with the avalanche in South Carolina and the endorsements and moves in the polls... Yesterday turned into Barack Obama's day, but the media didn't report it.
Barack won 14 out of 22 states. He won more delegates than Hillary. He beat her in Connecticut (what the hell?). And every news story has McCain gaining more of a lead and Super Tuesday ending up a wash for Clinton and Obama. WHAT? He won more states than she did, got more delegates than she did, and overcame double digit deficits in several of his wins -- are you kidding me? A tie?
Ugh.
That's it. As a media member myself (Ha!), I am outraged.
Even with the media's absurd lack of focus on him, Barack is still sitting pretty. The next contests have large black populations and several are caucuses; he's stronger organizationally and financially than Hillary is, which boggles the mind. Next week, he will win DC, and should win in Maryland. Virginia will be tougher, and a huge test for him.
Meanwhile, Multiple choice Mittens and Chuck Norris are fighting it out to decide who will be the next person to endorse John McCain.
