Back on the voting trail. Today is caucus day in Wyoming and I find it very peculiar that the press is now ignoring (for the most part) WY and just focusing on PA. Something tells me that if Obama wins today (WY is a caucus state so he has an advantage out of the gate) that his win will not have any perceived “momentum killer” for Hillary as it rightfully should. Actually today’s headlines should read “Obama wins WY and TX” since he leading in the pledged delegate count there. With 12 pledged delegates at stake Obama could nearly negate any delegate win Hillary had with a big win.
Another interesting thing to consider. Right now Obama leads in the Popular Vote and Pledged Delegates and Number of States. A fourth category not mentioned is Wins by Percentage which Wikipedia now has as their top graphic on the Dem race page.

Clinton has had 2 whole states where she has won beyond 20% of the vote, where Obama has won 19. Why isn’t the press talking about this? Ah yeah I remember they are more interested in a prolonged fight to help out their ratings now and in that they are regurgitating every Clinton “were gonna win” angle. As usual the Main Stream Media is doing a major disservice to the country. (UPDATE: I stand partially corrected, MSNBC just put on main story the Wyoming race so kudos to MSNBC)
