Texas Numbers

The 1% is the number of precincts reporting. Apparently, they are expecting around 3.3 million votes in Texas. That early margin has got to be encouraging for Obama. But Clinton was able to sow enough doubts about her opponent to finish strongly. The politics of fear works. She'll keep using it. Meanwhile, I'm getting lots of emails from the caucuses, where Obama seems very strong. So of course, Clinton is claiming irregularities. When she wins, it's fair. When she loses, she whines.
