This is an interesting question.  I think that Liebermann should be the nominee.  He is tough on national security in the Hubert Humphrey/Scoop Jackson Democrat tradition, but he differs with Bush enough domestically to acctually make the election a battle of ideas.  A year ago,I thought that he would be the nominee for sure.

No soul man, its the current total of SUPERDELEGATES ont he dem side.  Party bosses, ex presidents and such, congressmen, senate that get more of a pull than a normal delegate int eh primaries and caucuses.

Superdelegates?  I swear, the Democrats make no sence.  I don't get there primaries, there views or .... anything about them.  Thank God I'm a Republican.

PS  Doesn't the idea of "Superdelegates" go against the whole "one man, one vote" idea.
