Berman: Obama leads in delegates 606 to 534

[LittleBlue]

Berman's count: 606-534

David Plouffe, on a conference call just now, offered the Obama campaign's estimate of where they stand at this moment in terms of delegates.

"We are, in terms of delegates, ahead currently: about 606 to 534, in terms of pledged delegates awarded tonight," he said.

The Obama campaign's delegate guy, Jeff Berman, caught and corrected the inaccurate early reports of Nevada's delegate count, so they've got credibility on this count.

Plouffe cited wide margins in Kansas and Minnesota, as well as the fact that Obama had a larger margin in Illinois than Clinton did in New York.

7. Tell me, this has to be a big upset

...just last week I was hearing talking network heads saying that if Obama gets 40% + share, that would be considered good.

This is great!
