Super Tuesday: McCain Claims Victory, Obama & Clinton are Deadlocked

"Yes We Can" will have to wait a few more weeks. With most of the votes accounted for from yesterday's twenty-two primaries the race for the Democratic Presidential nomination is still undecided, however Sen. John McCain has cemented the fact that he is the clear frontrunner on the Republican side, with Mitt Romney's disappointing showing. Both Senator Obama and Senator Clinton had strong showings on Super Tuesday, however, the Clinton wagon is slowing down significantly, due to huge strides that Sen. Obama has made in the past few weeks. These strides and the almost complete deadlock that these two candidates are in, has led to a Democratic photo-finish similar to the 2004 election. Clinton has a slight edge, leading the delegate count by a mere 74 delegates. Voting demographics turned out as somewhat expected, with women heavily favoring Clinton and the youth and African-American vote strongly supporting Obama. With a few more primaries to go, it will be important to watch and see who emerges on top, with both Democratic candidates still saying, "Yes We Can."
