   Barack [1]pulls even with Hillary in a Gallup poll.
   You can see the Obamamentum [2]here. Given how these things usually
   turn out, with the momentum on his saide I'd have to say Obama is now
   the favorite to win more delegates tomorrow.
   Of course, the Dem contest won't be decided for some time, and McCain
   hasn't won yet. Still, I feel a lot better about a choice between
   Obama/McCain than Hillary/Romney.
   To be honest, I've been somewhat chagrined at the fury over McCain on
   the right, where my sympathies generally lie. Romney's record was just
   as left-liberal, if not more so, than Mcain's; he's just been more
   willing to pander to the conservative base in the course of his
   campaign. Sadly, after 8 years of (correctly) pillorying the Clintons
   for saying anything to grab power, that seems to be exactly the
   quality they demand from their own candidate.
