>It was so close that anything could happen.
In percentages certainly<g>.

>Even with Hillary having more delegates than Obama, it could still turn and Obama could come out on top.

Are you now talking about candidancy in general or Missouri results. I have found conflicting results and was too lazy to make certain: Obama with more people by 1% and delegates split evenly between Obama/Clinton ?

Obama having more voted delegates and Clinton having more superdelegates ?

>Odds are that McCain will win the Republican nomination, but it's still not a guarantee either. Huckabee could get the votes that would have gone to Romney or McCain could get them or they could be split down the middle like the Democrats are doing with Hillary and Obama. Usually in an election, we have a pretty good idea by now (after Super Tuesday) who will be the winner of both parties. Not so this time. It is rather unusual.

I think they will keep Huckabee so that McCain can stay in the headlines a bit longer as it is not mathematically impossible, but I don't see Romney votes going in large amounts to Huckabee, even less the delegates already voted. But news coverage of McCain as a clear winner for a few more weeks is good for him.

Best possibility for McCain is for Obama to have more voted delegates (about 10-15%) and then having the superdelegates pick Hillary. How often will Bill's food get's laced with viagra and reporters waiting after such events<g>.
