Its way to early for predictions, and my point is not politics.
With that disclaimer, something I am watching is how Obama embraced internet early. Edwards tried but if was fake. Clinton I would imagine has ‘people’ who do ‘that’.
Couple that with how the pundits and polls got Iowa wrong. We could be observing the thin edge of a real change that traditional measurements are [again] missing.
Senator Obama soundly beat Senator Clinton in the Iowa Caucuses last week. And he maintains an impressive lead in most online statistics as well. He has 212,000 MySpace friends, 50,000 more than any other candidate (and he’s added 5,000 more in the last day or so). He won the MySpace New Year’s Poll with 46% of the Democrat vote. Senator Clinton took second with just 31%. People who live in Iowa and New Hampshire are visiting Obama’s website more than any other candidate.

Very interesting Colin, I’m finding the influence of the internet during this election facinating to watch myself. I thought it was also very interesting to see who has the most online support from the Republicans, the underdog Ron Paul seems to be the favourite.
