Even my most reliable and unbiased news source speaks of "momentum" on the part of political candidates. In this case, I am speaking of Senator Clinton and her wins in "key" states.
I guess my question over and over again is: what is this momentum?
How does this affect how people will vote?
Possibly another word for it would be:
"Conformity" ? |

Maybe "bandwagon"
or
"Caucus"

It refers to Clinton's streak of one in a row since Wyoming and Mississippi. ;-) |

Sounds like the campaigns are once again proactively setting a synergistic paradigm.
On a related note, I ran across this: Obama vows to outlaw stupid corporate buzzwords

| They think 50% of us are stupid and just vote for the person that one the last one 50% of the time. Oddly, 50% of the time they are probably right. |

i think it is the way the news stations continue to make a story where there may (or may not be) a story
Momentum (unlike the math) can change daily hence keeping stories alive.
just my 2 cents |
