Well, now that the caucuses are factored in, looks like Obama actually won Texas. Nice one. Check here and here – time for the mainstream media to correct some erroneous information. And Hillary needs to respect it, too. She's all about the "process," right? Just like she argues with the superdelegates?

Listed below are links to weblogs that reference Obama Won Texas:
Before you say this site is "anti-Korean" or bashing Korea – read this: "Why Be Critical?" Chances are, if you're simply angry because I am a social critic in Korea but not actually Korean, see if your argument isn't just a kneejerk response that follows these patterns.
Here are some key posts, for those of you new to the blog, which are a sampling of some of my thoughts about race and ideology in Korea and in general, my view of what it means to be a true American, my answer to the question of "Why don't you talk about more positive things?", my thoughts on why the Korean media is so unprofessional, thoughts on the Korean education system (here and here), my post about and examples of racism in three countries' media and the difference in the way they're handled, my posts (here and here) channeling my anger about Katrina, my post about being black in Korea and the whole Hines Ward thing (here and here and here), a post directed against the fashionable racism of even so-called "progressive" Asian Americans, my first attempt at online activism – a petition against KBS, and even random posts such as why I love Apple and have used an Apple computer, why I think Korea doesn't like Star Trek but should really love Battlestar Galactica, and I am ashamed to say that I have even blogged about my cats (here and here).
As for my photo book (now in limbo due to editorial differences with the publisher), you can see the representative chapters from the "Seoul Essays" posts below. Note that Chapter 3 remains undone and in limbo on my computer:
Chapter I: On the Surface
Chapter II: Pleasures of the Everyday
Chapter IV: To Hell and Back
I have much, much more, but this is a random yet representative sampling of my work to start with.
I hear you Metro. The MSM's feel like high school sometimes. I think some journalists and pundits are blowing things out of proportion, saying he's got to change his strategy and go on the attack. Wrong! Why should he change his strategy? It would be good for ratings, but he went undefeated in February, and he raised 55 million dollars. And, his showing in Ohio wasn't all that bad. Sure, I would agree Senator Clinton had a good round, Tuesday, but Obama's still ahead. And, as of today, he's still winning (thank you Wyoming). He's not going to win every contest. I'd love to see him win every contest, but that's crazy. I don't understand why the standard for success is so much higher for Obama, than it is for Clinton. She's a former First Lady, but come on... Give the man some respect. He was endorsed by Rolling Stones Magazine. Why can't the MSM's talk about more positive things like that?

As far as the Texas results, I think Wolf Blitzer couldn't wait up, and wanted to call it before he went to bed.

Don't put so much stock in name brands, McNut. Sometimes, "real media outlets" get the story late. Sometimes, they even get the story wrong. This just in from CNN, a "real media outlet": Clinton beat Obama 51 percent to 47 percent in the Texas primary that was also held on March 4, but Obama was expected to win a majority of the 228 Texas delegates due to his caucus win. It's only a week late, but hey...
