This is not an election.....
This is a zoo....It's almost laughable.

http://www.cnn.com/ELECTION/2008/primaries/results/scorecard/#val=D

Here at CNN it shows Clinton with 70% more delegates than Obama despite the fact that we've only had three close races.

Many Media sources push McCain as the "frontrunner" despite having half the number of delegates that Romney has...

There are many examples of the media pushing McCain over Romney here....

1. If I was republican
and a Mitt Romney supporter I'd be crying foul. This guy is getting the shaft almost as bad as John Edwards is on our side, but no matter what he wins and even when he loses and is still coming in second the MSM refuses to acknowledge him. HE is the frontrunner not McCain or Huckleberry

5. Romney's problem is that he has nothing going on at all in the Super Tuesday states.
McCain is just dominating the field there.

I believe CNN counts the Super Delegates in their totals.

Of course they also omit the large number of Super Delagates that are still undecided due to the Congressmembers they belong to not endorsing any candidate as yet, but then again they arent known as the "Clinton News Network" for nothing and they want to make Hillary seem unstoppable as long as possible.

3. Hilary has been collecting Delegates other than just the race.
I posted here 3 weeks ago HRC is out in front with Delegate
Count. When everyone had declared her dead in NH I reminded
everyone at that time, she is ahead in Delegate as they were
calling her demise.

Hilary has been collecting Delegates from day one. Everything
is fair and above board.

4. The voters should have the full say on who gets elected in the primaries.

6. More voters in 2 out of 3 contests so far have chosen Hillary.

7. And that should be all it's based on. The voters.
