If the Dems had a
Winner Take All

Updated June 20, 2008

Rasmussen Reports released a hypothetical 'Winner Take All' commentary on April 3rd, 2008. There are several mistakes in their numbers and they also awarded American Samoa to Obama when in fact it was Clinton who won that caucus. They should check the official Delegate numbers from the DNC which were revised as of 3/17 & 4/17 & 5/15/08.
