Here We Go...Again

I hate to harp on this. I really do. Whomever wins the Democratic nomination will be a fine candidate and far, far superior to whatever bag of pus the GOP can muster.

But, give us a break, people. There was a primary in Florida today, in which all the Democratic candidates were on the ballot, and Clinton appears to have won and won big. Many of you are saying, "well, who cares? The delegates won't count."

You're wrong. Besides the creeping suspicion that many of the people taking this tack are Obama supporters who can't believe everyone isn't as stoked about his coronation as they are, if anyone thinks the fate of the Florida delegates is sealed, they're crazy. That case will be litigated again and, I suspect, ultimately they will be counted.

Furthermore, Florida matters even if the delegates never count officially. Last week, polls had Clinton ahead by 10-15 points. Then, if the media is telling the tale accurately, Obamania swept South Carolina and, by their reckoning, the universe. And yet, perhaps because people from Florida watch only FOX News and are illiterate, Clinton appears to have won the primary there by 15-20 points. Her advantage apparently increased after SC. What does that mean, pray tell?
