    or look at the movement in California.

    From the perspective of two months--Dec 4 to Feb 4--Obama has gone from also-ran to neck-and-neck.  This has been largely due to movement in Obama's numbers, not Hillary's, and has included a disproportionate swing from supporters of other candidates, black voters beginning to believe that a black candidate could win, a still-growing youth movement, and nationwide recognition that Obama has started a Movement.

    Anything but a conclusive loss by Obama on Feb 5 will just confirm all of those changes in the electorate, and keep that momentum going into my state, Washington, on Feb 9th--where Obama is leading the Democratic race.

    BTW, the news this morning is that RON PAUL is leading among Republicans here!!!  Mwahahahaha!

    Honesty is still the best policy.
