Boy, did I blow it. Crow for dinner, onna stick!

In my diary yesterday (no, I won't link it!) I was clearly under the influence ... of the corporate media and "polls". While I didn't expect a double-digit win for Obama, but figured something like 37-34 with Edwards around 20. After all, the polls couldn't be that far off, could they?

I don't use polls as an information source, usually. I did admit, recently, responding to conservative pundit Saunders, that polls close to a vote have some validity. Maybe just double the margin of error provided.

So ...

I stupidly came to the conclusion that Hillary was more or less finished, assuming some clear second-place finish, combined with what seemed to be some panicked moves in her campaign. I don't think the reasoning was bad, but in fact she won. Clearly. So her campaign is in pretty good shape.

My diary was about what anyone-but-Hillary (ABH) supporters should do now. Fence-sitting is not productive. All that is irrelevant now. The real-world facts are different. So I guess ANHers should just do whatever they have been in terms of strategy and tactics.

So mea culpa, I stepped in a big fresh pie. $#it happens. I'm signing off on the primaries until Super-Duper Tuesday. I haven't a clue how things are trending, and don't want to tread in primal soup again this winter, at least.

Recipes for crow appreciated. I'm thinking satay or roasted with Kos orange sauce. What is the vegetarian equivalent of crow? Bitter melon?
