We ask so little of you; to keep us informed on the custody status of Britney's kids, to let us know, assuming she's white and pretty enough, that somewhere a young woman was tragically killed, and of course, updates on just how often Roger Clemens used steroids. And to your credit, you are all over these vital stories that affect millions of Americans, so kudos for that. But just one small quibble; could you take some of the journalistic zeal and attention to detail that you invest in those stories and use them in your reporting of the 2008 presidential primary race?

This morning, MSNBC's political reporter John Yang was asked what was next for Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton, following Obama's victory in Wyoming. Said Yang:

And what happened in Wyoming means that Barack Obama is again adding to his delegate lead, his lead in the delegate count, and erasing at least some of the gains that Hillary Clinton made in Ohio, Texas and Rhode Island last week. And that means this see-saw battle is going to go on.

First of all, Obama gained more delegates in Texas than did Hillary. Second, a see-saw battle would imply that the lead keeps changing hands. It hasn't. Obama remains ahead in the pledged delegate count by approximately 100 delegates. Third, the only way Hillary will be able to overcome that deficit is if Obama falls victim to the old, "found in bed with a live boy or a dead woman." So please, get over your dream of an epic battle to the convention and report the facts. Oh, and by the way, John W. McCain is not a straight talker. FYI.
