Senator John Kerry won today's Michigan caucus and will consequently gain most of the state's delegates. However, with 17% of the vote Howard Dean also won some delegates, and despite what the media keeps saying about Dean's complete failure, Dean is in second place when one looks at the delegates won. Kerry's win was predictable, as most of the media's coverage made the case that he already had the election wrapped up. The most recent issue of Z Magazine has an article titled "How the Media Picks the Candidates" which is an interesting read in light the media's efforts to declare a "winner" after a small percentage of delegates have been selected.
