OK, I know this is an entertainment blog, and I shouldn’t be going on about politics. However, seeing as how–in addition to sweeping four states by wide margins, plus taking all the delegates in the U.S. Virgin Islands–he did just win an EMMY, I have an excuse.

At the second I write this, I’m looking at the first delegate estimate that puts Obama ahead of Clinn-ton (you have to say it like a Simpsons alien) in the delegate count. This is despite the insider advantage over superdelegates that has kept her (artificially?) in the lead until now. She’s still polling better than he is, but check the scoreboard:

Note the almost 3-to-1 results in my home state of Washington, thenkyaverrmuch! Meanwhile, polls are supporting what he’s been saying about being the best candidate against McCain:

Clinton vs. McCain
Obama vs. McCain

A couple of weeks ago, I randomly predicted to some of my students that it would be Texas that put Obama over the top. If momentum is as important as they say, I might just wind up looking like a freakin’ political genius.
