Obama takes the lead

One thing's for certain: Sen. Barack Obama has momentum. Obama is now in the lead, having 1,253 delegates, which is 42 delegates more than his opponent, Sen. Hillary Clinton. Obama won the primaries from all three states in the elections on Tuesday, Feb. 11. Clinton's had eight consecutive losses to Obama, but has been putting her effort into the bigger states that haven't voted yet, such as Texas and Ohio. She'll need all the help she can get to stop Obama's winning streak.

As for the Republican race, Sen. John McCain has practically won. He has 827 delegates and Mike Huckabee only has 217, and it's mathematically impossible for him to make a comeback extreme enough to beat McCain. The GOP leaders are celebrating McCain's "victory" and endorse him. Now it's just the Democratic Party nominee that's up for grabs. Next up: Washington and Wisconsin.

I wonder:
Who has the best chance of winning: the candidate who promises change, has the most delegates but isn't winning the big states, or the candidate with the experience, wins the big states but has been losing the top position?
Will the people vote on who has the best policies or who will beat McCain?
Only time will tell, and while the Democrats are getting nervous, the Republicans better start preparing for one heck of a battle for the White House.
