Obama wins everything this weekend

So far, Barack Obama has already won Washington State and Nebraska caucuses this weekend, as well as Louisiana and the Virgin Islands. Maine’s caucus results are not yet complete, but this is what MSNBC has so far:

NBC News and news services

AUGUSTA, Maine - NBC News projected that Barack Obama has defeated Hillary Rodham Clinton in the Democratic Party’s Maine caucuses on Sunday, a day after sweeping three other states.

Democrats in 420 Maine towns and cities decided how the state’s 24 delegates would be allotted at the party’s national presidential convention in August. Despite the weather, turnout was “incredible,” party executive director Arden Manning said.

With 59 percent of precints reporting, Obama had 57 percent to Clinton’s 42 percent.

And this is from his campaign website:

  1. Imagine that America is less racist than the GOP thought, you know Karl was counting on voters lying to polls about voting for Obama but then in the privacy of the voting both voting for anyone else.
    Maybe there is hope :smile:
    African American President , Woman President who would have thought THAT could happen in Karl Rove’s America.

  2. I was for John Edwards, but I wish (idealistically) that the race and gender issues would just go away, and then we can clearly see that Obama is the only choice AS A HUMAN BEING. I hate having to keep saying “It is not her gender that is the reason I don’t like Hillary.”

    I am certainly glad to see Obama racking up the delegates the way he is. He’s not quite so progressive as I’d like him to be (like Edwards), but , IMHO, at least, he’s a hell of a lot more representative of you and me than Hillary is–by a long shot!!

    And who is more like likely to beat scoundrel McCain? The answer is OBVIOUS.
