Monday Thoughts

Some non-OYL related thoughts on the weekend:
  • Obama won convincingly in Wyoming. It won't mean much in terms of the delegate count but it does stop any talk of Clinton momentum coming out of Texas and Ohio.
  • The Democrats would be wise to redo in some fashion the primaries in Florida and Michigan. There's well over a month until April 22nd and the Pennsylvania primary. Surely, they could get a race together by then.
  • A big win for the Democrats in a special congressional election. The dems took the seat previously held by Republican speaker Dennis Hastert. If the Republicans can't win in southern Illinois, they are in big trouble.
  • Looks like Obama may come out of Texas with more delegates than Clinton.
  • Okay, so this is sort of OYL related. The message from both Stéphane Dion and Bob Rae over the weekend was that the Liberals have the power to call the election and will use that power. I have no clue what that means in terms of election timing.
  • Layton appearing on Lou Dobbs is hilarious. If the NDP wants to refight the 1988 Election, we should be happy to let them at it.
  • We are a couple of weeks away from the start of the Toronto FC season. Come on you reds!
