A Numbers Refresher
With all this bogus talk about Clinton momentum, lets’ take a look at the actual numbers as of today:
- Barack Obama didn’t lose any ground this week. Despite all the talk about Hillary Clinton’s big confetti–really, confetti when you are behind in a race that has a long ways to go?–victories, she only netted somewhere between plus-four to plus-10 delegates Tuesday. Obama netted plus-nine delegates in Washington D.C. alone.
- Barack Obama is way ahead in delegates. Even including super delegates, HRC is still at least 100 total delegates behind no matter who you ask.
- Barack Obama has won 27 out of 41 states. He has also won 13 of the last 16.
- Barack Obama is winning the total popular vote.
- Barack Obama crushed the monthly fundraising record by raising $55 million in February. HRC raised $35 million, and gloated about it for a week.
- Barack Obama beats John McCain 52-40 percent in the latest head-to-head poll. HRC only 50-44.
Who’s winning this race? Who still has momentum? Even at 3 AM those numbers aren’t fuzzy at all. Yes, we can!
