CNN reports that, in Louisiana:

" On the Democratic side, voters looking for change picked Illinois Sen. Barack Obama.

But if experience was key, Sen. Hillary Clinton was the candidate of choice, the polls indicated."

Well, thank you CNN for pointing out that Obama is the candidate of change and Clinton is the candidate of experience. Absolute cutting edge reporting there.

The delegates won by Obama in his sweep of Saturday's primaries bring him within 61 total delegates of Clinton, and ahead of Clinton in pledged "normal" delegates (excluding superdelegates) Does this mean that he has momentum and will continue catching up to Clinton and eventually pass her? Or is this just an aberration?

Please note: This is not simpyl asking "who do you like of the two?", it is asking for an analysis of the situation, regardless of your preference. It's a tall order, I know...but hopefully you're up to it. noway

No doubt about it, Barrack has a ton of momentum, its all going to come down to demographics. Whos going to show up to the polls? Most older folks see Hillary as an expierienced leader where they see Barrack as a "Rock Star" where the Younger people see him as someone who will bring much needed change. Its all going to come down to which demographic has more people there to vote!

Does anyone actually read the original post? At all? Ever?

What was I thinking.
