Battle for President
 The struggle continues, with John McCain now the nominee of the Republican Party and Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton very much neck-and-neck for the Democratic Party's nomination.The latest development is that Clinton has won the popular vote in the Pennsylvania primary. Because the Democratic Party awards delegates based on proportion of vote totals, however, Clinton didn't put too much of a dent in Obama's overall delegate lead.
Clinton picked up 67 delegates. Obama garnered 51. Obama is still ahead, with the ultimate goal being 2,025.
