It's funny how a few days can change the trajectory of this race. [View All]

Late last week so many people were ready to write Obama off. They explained to us Obama supporters that THIS was finally the thing that would bring his campaign down. No way could Obama do enough to stop the bleeding and surely his campaign would torpedo in the days and months ahead. Then that Rasmussen poll was released, showing Obama dropping 4 points in one day and they used this as evidence of his plunge. All that was left, they said, was for Obama to drop out and endorse Clinton. Some suggested he wouldn't even be fit for the Vice Presidential spot on that ticket, since he'd even lose his senate seat over this. They actually believed Barack Obama's campaign for president collapsed as fast as it rose.

Well a funny thing happened on the way to campaign destruction. His poll numbers rebounded, he received a wink-wink endorsement from the most powerful Democrat in Congress, re-won Iowa by an even bigger margin, picked up a major labor endorsement in Oregon, was exonerated by a right-wing Chicago paper in the Rezko case and his delegate lead over Clinton is the LARGEST it's ever been.

Yup, looks like he's cooked.
