This is what makes America great.

Please, just click and listen, and decide for yourselves.

billary loses the lynchpin state, um, territory of Guam 54-46. Obama gains about a delegate and a half. Meaningful? No, but if billary had won every tool in her drawers, starting with our erudite elitist Shawn, would have been shouting it from the trailer tops. Her super delegate lead decreases daily, and is now in the mid teens, where it was once nearly a hundred. Do our Klinton Kamp Kids see a trend? Nope.

People from Wisconsin are different than other parts of the country in the same way that people from Iowa are. They are just plain nicer. I don't know why this is and I don't want to speculate but speaking as a person who has been calling all of the primary states it is noticeable. Maybe that makes them more willing to accept someone at face value.Maybe they just didn't know him yet?

Things have changed since those two primaries and the public knows Sen. Obama a little better now. They have heard his inspirational speeches quite a few more times and they have seen him in more debates,they have watched his handling of the bitter comments and the Rev. They see him looking tired and a little bored,they have heard him disrespect Hillary.He has lost some of his original shine.

The point I really want to make however, is that he has been neglecting his base.He has put no advertising $ in black media,he has avoided going to black events,he has completely ignored black issues.Where is Jesse Jackson? I always love what Jesse brings to an election cycle,always talks about poor people of all colors.Now, he has really disrepected a Pastor held in high regard in AA communities to appease his white supporters.I know he is doing this to avoid being relegated as a black candidate and the the AA community is supposed to wink and nod and understand.I'm wondering if they are not feeling so great about him lately. A number that has gotten very little attention is the one hundred thousand more AA votes his campaign was expecting in Philly which would have given him a much narrower margin in PA. We always see the percent of the vote he gets from people who have voted, but do we ever hear how that compares to number of votes available? Some people may just be staying home because no one has asked them to go out,it was just expected of them.

I have found a website that gives a different perspective of the way AAs are feeling, it is www.blackagendareport.com. It is a facinating read for someone who is wondering how at least part of the AA community is thinking.

That video was doctored. There is a story right here in the Salon War Room: "what did Mickey Kantor really say?"

Turns out it was not much.

One can only hope a few of The Herd did bother to click and listen (not that they'd admit it). And yes, it is, at least in great part, what makes America great. Thanks for putting it up here.

Barack Obama doesn't need to do anything to break any so-called deadlock. He should continue what he's done -- racking up delegates and leading in popular votes, no matter who wins what next week, the week after that, or the month after this one.

It's the delegates, and he has them sewn up! That's how this nomination will get decided. Nobody will overturn the will of the people. The DNC and superdelegates will respect the pledged delegate count, and that means this race is OVER!

Keep dreaming! Keep misleading the American people.

This is not a close race. This is a race that should've been called some time ago. Barring a miracle, Clinton will not catch up in pledged delegates, and it's highly unlikely she will catch up in popular votes either. Further, Obama's success in bringing new voters into the process and the unprecedented amount of money he raises from very loyal supporters, all point toward Obama as the best candidate for the Democratic party. None of that is lost on party leaders. All this campaign noise about a close race is just fallacy.
