Perception and Politics

Just one more quick hit before I must away. Oregon and Kentucky have been at the polls all day. Early returns are coming in, but the the press is already carrying Obama's water for him. His campaign initially had planned to announce victory of sorts today after winning the majority of pledged delegates. As the month rolled along they decided instead to back off as the media seemed to be minimizing Senator Clinton on it's own. 


However, media outlets have widely reported the milestone for Obama today even if the campaign plans on making no mention of it. While I am no Clinton supporter, the media is ending this thing for us, whether Hillary likes it or not.
