One thing people have to consider while looking at the latest polling...
The vote in California and most of the other states has been going on for some time now...

More and more people are taking advantage of Absentee and other pre-election day means of voting...

If the number of pre Feb 5th votes cast reaches fifteen percent, then all the current polls will be over or under stating the actual voting trends...

Then we will have hand wringing by the pundits...

Personally I love this...

It has been since 1976 that the democrats or the republicans have had such contested primary races...

No matter what your state of mind may be right now, this is an election that is redefining the demcratic party regardless of who wins...

That old Chinese curse, may you live in interesting times, is happening right now and I, for one, find it a blessing instead of a curse...

1. Interesting thoughts...
Especially when you consider what time it is!

I find it most interesting as well...

Nor is it a curse ...

I am really looking forward to the end of this primary madness...

And to the new definition of the Democratic party!

Good night!

2. I agree. I think all the excitement bodes well for us in the general too.

3. That would mean a lot more votes for Edwards than the polls suggest.
Shocking.

;)
