Super Sunday And Super Tuesday

By Big Tent Democrat

By Big Tent Democrat

The Super Bowl is today and I do believe today and tomorrow will have less focus on politics than any 2 days this year. What effect that will have I do not know but politics will become the top story again when the votes are being cast and counted.

The state of the race for Super Tuesday is well matched among the Democrats. Barack Obama is well funded, well covered and well endorsed. He has no excuses. Results are just results now.

Playing expectations games, something the Obama campaign has never been particularly good at, no longer matters. Winning states and delegates matter. This is a relief. Let's put the pundits on the sidelines for a while. The blogs too. NOTE: One last piece of punditry - On MTP, Russert asks "what happens if Clinton loses California? Carville says "it would be bad." Well, presumably winning California then would be good. For the spin of the night, it all comes down to California. Which means it will be way late that night before the spin of the night is decided.

It is time for the voters to decide.
