That's how long until the Democratic National Convention, according to their website. Until then, there's no nominee. And here's some stats I found regarding delegate committments (along with some of the rules about vote allocation among delegates (which, frankly, make the rules for the Hugo Award balloting seem elementary by comparison)). Unless the numbers displayed are outdated, Kerry does not have a lock on the first ballot.
Count me as another concerned citizen appalled by the early and crowded primary election system. You may even count me among the Democrats less than satisfied with the "nominee-presumptive". I am not, however, convinced that Joe Lieberman is anything more than a Democrat-by-convenience... which (and I can understand the feeling) is how some Republicans feel about John McCain's affiliation.
Maybe both of them are on to something.
