Obama wins Iowa..again..some more

Brendan Loy points to the news that Iowa Democrats held their county conventions yesterday, and that as a result, presidential hopeful U.S. Senator Barack Obama increased his potential delegate lead in the party's nominating race.

This happened because, in Iowa (unlike, I'm thinking, Tennessee), county delegates who'd previously backed John Edwards broke widely for Obama over rival Senator Hillary Clinton.

In Tennessee, March 15 saw the state convention, which I believe finalized the delegation to Denver in August. (Is anything final in this race? I guess it will be by Labor Day.) Your Times Free Press has a story about some of the grappling that went on in Nashville. (It only took me 70 years to get that link.)
