I'm not counting anyone as being out or in the lead yet. The trick is to keep reminding yourself that any media outlet is trying to fill airtime with vacuous commentary and projections to sell commercials. Worse, behind that are the owners of the media outlets who likely don't want any of the democratic hopefuls to look good, so they'll keep skewing the reports of who is "in the lead" on a weekly basis until more voters give up in disgust.
