If I am not mistaken, the math favors Obama.

CNN is reporting number that are VERY different today! They started last night saying Obama was less than 100 delegates ahead and have continued.

at their election center today here are the numbers they have.

Obama 1328 pledged and 199 Superdels = 1527

Clinton 1190 pledged and 238 Superdels = 1328


Something is odd here!

Did Obama lose 11 superdelegates? Last I looked he had 210. Did he lose pledged delegates?

No he did not, CNN is the Clinton News Network and has been favoring her in the counts all along. I am watching Meet the Press and they have him at 211 Supers.

You took the words right out of my mouth. I think Anderson Cooper has some kind of interactive feature on the 360 website and all of us should go there and protest this irresponsible reporting.

Cooper's interactive feature is "Keeping Them Honest". I just wrote
about this irresponsible reporting. Here is the link:

CNN.com - Send an I-Report

(The 199 superdelegate figure for Obama is also reported on CNN's website.)

Here's mine.

Your network has fallen far since the days of Ted Turner's ownership. But to claim Obama only has 199 super delegates when in fact he has 210 [source: Real Clear Politics] is a sign of failing to update your information or bias. Other news outlets are accurately reporting the delegate count and won't have a hard time steering your viewers away based on the most recent news alone.
