		<title>Race and the 2008 Election, Part Two</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Though this surely won&#8217;t be the last word, as we have a long way to go until November, I wanted to follow up on last night&#8217;s post and give some of my own thoughts about what role race will play in this election.
First, and I mean this with 100% sincerity, let me say up front [...]]]></description>

		<title>Race and the 2008 Election: Part One</title>
		<description><![CDATA[In a later post, I will put down my own thoughts on the role of race in this campaign, but in this post, I just want to highlight a few pieces published in the wake of the West Virginia stomping last night (while agreeing with the vast majority that the result was essentially meaningless in [...]]]></description>

		<title>To The Surprise Of Exactly Not A Single Living Soul&#8230;</title>
		<description><![CDATA[&#8230;Hillary Clinton has won West Virginia. No margin yet, but expect it to be huge&#8230;What does it change?  Nothing, but she&#8217;ll get some good headlines, and various pundits will breathlessly wonder what this says about Obama&#8217;s electability&#8230;
UPDATE 11:22 p.m.: Well, credit where credit is due&#8230;40+ points is a huge win.  Unfortunately, what this result [...]]]></description>

		<title>Hillary Reaches The Bargain Bin</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Despite her upcoming 30+ point victory in West Virginia, Hillary Clinton campaign memorabilia is just not flying off the shelves these days:
The pundits can argue all they want, her campaign may protest that she&#8217;s still in the game, but at the &#8220;America!&#8221; souvenir shops at Dulles International and Reagan National airports, the signs are clear [...]]]></description>

		<title>I&#8217;ll Be There When The Last Teardrop Falls</title>
		<description><![CDATA[The final shoe has dropped, the final nail is in the coffin: Barack Obama now leads in superdelegates, too.
ABC News&#8217; Karen Travers Reports: For the first time this campaign season, Barack Obama has surpassed Hillary Clinton&#8217;s support among superdelegates, according to the ABC News delegate estimate.  
Sen. Obama, D-Ill., picked up two superdelegates this morning [...]]]></description>

		<title>Hillary For Veep?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[More and more chatter is flying around concerning the possibility of an Obama/Clinton ticket - chatter that is being pushed hard by Clinton insiders.  I have always assumed Hillary wouldn&#8217;t want - and Obama wouldn&#8217;t offer - the slot of Vice President.  It&#8217;s becoming increasingly clear, however, that if the alternative is to return to [...]]]></description>

		<title>If Perception Is Everything In Politics&#8230;</title>
		<description><![CDATA[&#8230;then Hillary Clinton has had the worst day of the campaign.  You can&#8217;t swing a cat without hitting some pundit, famous or otherwise, calling her presidential bid doomed (and you won&#8217;t find any disagreement here - it&#8217;s over).  Her chance of securing the nomination plummeted to 8.5% at Intrade after trading as high as 22% [...]]]></description>

		<title>Obama Did What He Had To Do</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Computer issues prevent more than a brief post, but, though Indiana still looks like it will go Clinton by a very small margin, Obama has won North Carolina, big.  And that&#8217;s really all he needed.
I wavered a bit on Obama, as he was definitely reeling, but I&#8217;m back up to 99.9% certainty: the nomination is [...]]]></description>

		<title>Another Big Day For The Democrats Approaches&#8230;</title>
		<description><![CDATA[&#8230;and I&#8217;m predicting Indiana will go Clinton and North Carolina - well, it&#8217;s a toss-up.  Obama SHOULD win, but everything&#8217;s coming up roses for Clinton lately, so I&#8217;m not giving North Carolina to either candidate yet.
On the positive side for Obama, he&#8217;s been doing quite well with superdelegates as of late, and I predict [...]]]></description>

		<title>One Million Served</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Some time around 9:00 p.m. Central tonight, May 3, 2008, my Sitemeter is going over the 1,000,000 visitor mark.  These meters are an inexact science, but that does give me some gratification.  There are sites out there that get hundreds of thousands of visits per day, so I definitely don&#8217;t have the big [...]]]></description>
