Clinton's once commanding lead in the Democratic nomination
battle has
eroded, and the race is clearly a dead heat nationally. He's
also close (or slighly ahead) in
California,
Alabama, and
Missouri.
Clearly, Obama has all the momentum now. The question is whether
Clinton built up enough of a cushion in most states to just eke out
a victory. But given all the proportional delegate states on the
Democratic site, and given that everything is trending in his
direction, Obama has a great chance to hold his own on Tuesday, and
pull this thing off. I would be more confident in his chances if it
weren't for what I witnessed up close in New Hampshire, where I saw
how the power of the Clinton machine could somehow manufacture a
victory. Then again, the Patriots always found a way to win until
last night.
