The Democratic Presidential race and a numbers guy
You can think what you want; however, I'm staying with "It's not over 'til it's over" until I'm really sure it's "over"...
In the Wall Street Journal, Lawrence B. Lindsey explains the numbers and then closes with:
"Democrats are clearly going to have to rewrite their delegate selection rules after this contest, like they did after similar fiascos in 1968 and 1988. Until then, it's up to the lawyers, and may the cleverest lawyer win. My money is on Mr. Obama blocking the statistically based solution described above. After all, as a product of Harvard myself, I know perfectly well that Harvard produces cleverer lawyers than Yale, regardless of what the numbers might say."
