Poll Vault

Speaking of polls, the Pew Research Center's latest has Obama with a solid lead over Clinton (54 percent to 41 percent nationally). Last month, the two were about equal.

Meanwhile, we hope things will be winding down come next week, when Puerto Rico phones in its primary results on Sunday. (Burning question—Will Ricky Martin's endorsement of Clinton today give her the island's nod?) Tuesday the final two democratic primaries happen in Montana and South Dakota. And then it is all over but the shouting.

And day three of the McClellan lynching goes on. Scotty is all over the TV, appearing on The Today Show this morning and popping up with my buddy Olbermann tonight. 

While the White House may be puzzled by all this, what I am puzzled by is the near riot that apparently broke out in NYC when promoters of the Sex and the City movie oversold tickets to the premiere. Listen ladies, I am pretty darn excited about this movie—feminism be damned—but methinks you might need to rethink some of your priorities if you are willing to riot over a movie ticket. I love SJP and all the other ladies, but really?

Strange days indeed.
