Seems like these primary contests are all about performance vs. expectations. Last night we resoundingly crushed the expectations - in both the popular vote and the delegate count. Specifically, the combined numbers from IN & NC show Barack racked up a margin of 210,000 popular votes, and he won 91 delegates to Hillary's 79 (with a handful of delegate slots yet to be allocated).
We have an insurmountable lead in pledged delegates and in the popular vote - even if the bogus results from Florida and Michigan are counted. And we're about to take the lead in superdelegates as well. The remaining contests will simply confirm the inevitable. It's time to unite the Democratic Party and focus on crushing John McCain in November.
Now here's one expectation we didn't beat. The Zogby poll (www.zogby.com) called both contests exactly - forecasting a 14-point win in North Carolina and a statistical dead heat in Indiana. Not bad!Fired up to win the nomination - and win again in November!Jamie
