American Values Alliance | Practical voice for progressive valuesThis can't be true:
Obama could top Clinton by 3
With all the back-and-forth over the delegates gained by Obama and Clinton in yesterday’s Texas primary, this word is just in from state Democratic officials.
Obama could pick up a net gain of three delegates, after all the dust settles.
Here’s how Dem officials say that’s possible:
Clinton won the popular vote, and could pick up as many as four delegates from that.
Obama appears to be winning the caucus voting on delegates, and could pick up as many as seven delegates there.
If that holds true, Obama would end up with three more Texas delegates than Clinton.
...the hell?! This is the Texas Two-Step primary/causus system. Don't you love it?

The Texas Two-Step (a primary followed by a caucus--no kidding) is in mid-step. The primary went for Clinton and now the caucus is in progress with only about 40% reporting and those going for Obama.
Does anyone else other than me wonder what the hairy heck we're doing here?
