Analysis

Kerry's definitely the front-runner. Edwards is second, because he won SC and placed well in MO, and those two states have the most delegates. Clark showed, but he barely won OK. He's got to win some more over the next couple of weeks. Dean won some delegates and is well, pretty much is going to stick with his plan of waiting things out as long as he can... Michigan, Maine, and Washington are this weekend, and Dean will be hoping just to keep winning delegates. Edwards and Clark will battle it out next week in Tennesee and Virginia, and whoever wins will be the anti-Kerry. The Wisconsin primary on Feb 17 is the next make or break one. That's when we'll lose one or two of the candidates. Then it's a two or three man race on Super Tuesday.

1. my turn

i said before if Kerry won 5 he'd be 67-75%... i'm going to go with 75% at this point because Kerry was so strong in so many states - winning them outright.

At this point, Edwards is running interference for Kerry... the payback will be the VP slot. Democratic machine locks it up again...

unless the 2 grassroots campaigns do something stunning, then all bets are off

2. "Clark showed".

That's painful dude! He did win OK and beat Edwards for second in 3 states!

However I do agree TN & VA will decide between Clark & Edwards.
