2008 Presidential Race
On the Democratic side:
Obama won the Wyoming caucus over the weekend, gaining a few more pledged delegates.
DailyKos points to a very interesting round of polling done by SUSA (who I think is the most accurate polling organization, which I will have to go into another day). Specifically, it shows both Hillary and Obama winning the presidency over McCain by looking at it state-by-state and figuring out the electoral college results. Interestingly enough, they each get the presidency in very different ways.
This weekend, it was Bill Clinton talking about a possible Clinton/Obama ticket.
On the Republican side:
While the Democratic primary continues, McCain’s biggest challenge is remaining in the spotlight.
Though this isn’t specifically about the presidential race, the Democratic candidate Bill Foster defeated the Republican Jim Oberweis in a special election in IL-14, Dennis Hastert’s old seat. This was surprising, and bodes ill for Republican congressional races. Coincidentally, Obama campaigned for Foster and McCain for Oberweis.

However, I think that Hillary is talking about this now to say, "Look, if I am Pres Obama will still be on the ticket," which Obama is taking as an insult (after all, he is currently in the number one slot). From the article danijo1 linked above, I don't think Obama will ask Hillary, unless he is absolutely forced to by the party.
