Pe[e/a]king at the Polls.

As I said before, I don't want to put too much emphasis on polls anymore -- partly because of what happened in New Hampshire, partly because they're all over the place. Still, it looks like Senators Obama and Clinton may now be tied nationally. (Obama even has a statistical lead in one poll.) And, again, while polls differ -- some suggest an Obama lead, some don't -- all seem to indicate the Senator from Illinois is not only surging in California (Thank you, Maria Shriver!), but even threatening Clinton's tri-state home base in Connecticut and New Jersey(!)

A lot of what happens tomorrow will depend on the ground game, and the race will go on past Super Tuesday in almost any event. Still, if we all get out there and make our voices heard, it looks like there's an outside chance Obama could emerge the delegate leader tomorrow night. Sure, a sweep would be wondrous, but let's face it -- it's extremely unlikely. There's still a lot of game left to play, and -- after tomorrow, of course -- slow and steady wins the race. Let's at least get Senator Obama in a good position to move forward. As long as he can keep it close tomorrow, we're good to go.
