*It looks like Barack Obama's got his groove back. It also appears that his Jeremiah Wright troubles are behind him, at least for now.

     And after responding strongly to George Bush and John McCain over their comparisons of him to Nazi appeasers, he's got a serious spring in his step these days.

     Things seem so rosy for the all but officially named presumptive Democratic presidential nominee that a whopping 75,000 supporters turned out in Portland on Sunday to hear what he had to say.

     The Illinois senator was in the city as part of his campaign in the Oregon Primary tomorrow. Kentucky is also holding their primary, but apparently Obama's strategy doesn't include spending any time there.

     When asked if he has given up on that state’s primary, where Hillary Clinton holds double-digit lead in the polls, Obama said he doesn’t give up on anything.

     “I don’t give up on things, we've gotta make choices and we can’t be everywhere at once,” Obama told reporters after making a local stop for ice cream with his family.

     From Obama's advisor's point of view, May 20 will be a pivotal day for the campaign because they will have gained the majority of elected pledged delegates. Even though Obama said he will not declare victory on Tuesday, he said he will have a stronger case to present to superdelegates.

    “We will have the majority of pledged delegates at that point and obviously are going to make the argument to any superdelegates remaining that we should be the nominee,” Obama said.
