The main thing is the delegate count. Pennsylvania is important as well as what is done about Florida and Michigan (there seems to be less attempts now at being parasites and have the DNC or the feds pay for new elections, and a mature effort to finance something on their own, as they should) and of course the superdelegates.
Sentiment favors Obama but there's a long time to go — time for exposure of Obama's past foibles (anything really bad would probably have surfaced by now, though) and forcing him to be more than just a pretty face, at the risk of turning off voters who are disappointed if they learn more, or cannot learn more.
