1. These are the numbers that count. You wouldn't know it from MSM,
would you?

6. huge numbers of politicians lining up behind the presumptive two 'frontrunners'
I wonder how they would react to any momentum by Edwards?

7. Guess who introduced the whole "super delegate" thing?
We can thank Hillary and Bill for that one, too. Ugh.....

5. What's that old fable..."The Tortoise and the Hare?" Sadly, Superdelegates
are the key...but if Edwards can keep winning delegates it makes for a more interesting Convention.
