Meet Poblano, the most interesting new voice in the blogosphere, a self-proclaimed "data wonk" with a Kos Diary. In his Super Tuesday Preview, 1/31/08, he parses an astonishing amount of data, from polls and trends, endorsements (possible endorsements) and past voting patterns, projecting what it all means going forward, particularly in next week's Democratic primaries.
After a discussion of many variables, from Ted Kennedy's endorsement of Obama to the withdrawal of John Edwards (and a discussion of the importance of the frontrunners' California debate), he then breaks the facts down, state by Super Tuesday state, with a graphic summary for each. Here's Georgia:
He concludes with a delegate breakdown projection, five possible scenarios, and the odds thereof. If you read only one thing political between now and next week, this should be it. Seriously. (Go. Now. Read.)
Peace, out, y'all.
