The Surprising Mr Obama
Have a look at the graph below, which shows attention around Obama or Clinton, just Clinton and just Obama.
It seems that Clinton's solo trend is relatively even compared with Obama's.
We can see some clear peaks in Obama's trend that don't correlate strongly with Clinton's. These are illustrated below.
In other words, Obama's results on Super Tuesday, his wife's comments on her husband, and the current story regarding Obama's pastor's statements are all strongly identified with him independent of Clinton. Of these events, that most strongly associated with Clinton is, not surprisingly, Super Tuesday:
Clinton has had, relative to Obama, very few independent bursts of attention.
What do these charts suggest? I'm not too sure: all news is good news (if it keeps attention on you?) Obama's increased attention precipitates surprises? Surprises keep attention on a candidate?

Give it a rest, will ya? He's just another wealthy lawyer hungry for power. He doesn't promise to solve ANY of the pressing problems this country faces. Energy dependency, universal healthcare, endless wars all over the planet, global warming, social security crisis. He has no clue, and neither do the other two candidates. You don't "understand who he is". You just buy into a carefully orchestrated marketing campaign.
It's about time people elected someone with engineering background to run the country. The last prez with any education in science was Jimmy Carter.
