Well, always on the front curve of the news, I'm proud to announce that we here at Retrospective Reflections talked a little about the VP issue for John McCain before CNN.com. Unfortunately for us, CNN.com did it much better. Fortunately for you, however, here's the link to their story.
Pretty interesting list of names, including the four that we mentioned yesterday.
Back to the Democratic side, the race everyone is paying attention to is the upcoming vote in Pennsylvania.
Clinton had held a huge lead in the state, but as the date of the vote (April 22) gets closer, Clinton's lead has been shrinking.
In the latest polls from CNN.com, Clinton's lead is down to 4 points, 46% to 42%.
If Clinton loses Pennsylvania, it will be hard for her to justify staying in the race. Even if she wins there will be many calls for her to drop out unless she wins it significantly. A close vote that only gains her a few delegates won't help the fact that she is currently down 143 Delegates. She's behind by 171 pledged delegates, and her once large lead in the Super Delegate count is now only 28. The longer that Obama keeps a sizable delegate lead, the more Super Delegates go over to him.
I think that it is very possible that this could be decided by the end of the month, as it's beginning to look more and more inevitable that Barack Obama will win the nomination. Of course this race so far has been anything but normal.
