JP, arent the super delegates totals subject to major changes? For example John Lewis was a Super voting for Hillary who is now voting for Obama. Am I wrong to think that 5 months of basically dead time between now and the conventions will leave plenty of time for deals and revelations to make the current leanings subject to major change?
For example, today the conventional wisdom says the supers wont dare go against public sentiment and vote for Hillary. But what if polls turn against Obama as it relates to McCain? What if Rezko resonates? What if any number of unknown issues come up? Isnt that sort of what the supers are there for?
Yeah, I'd say that basically the only thing that happened was that Clinton didn't have to drop out.
However, that's a pretty big thing, especially because she might get some positive media out of it. Also it would be weird if SNL turned out to be meaningful.

(Except five months of dead time. The primaries don't end until the
first week of June)
