“Illinois senator Barack Obama finished a series of weekend primary and caucus contests undefeated as he bested Hillary Clinton in Maine today, according to CBS News estimates. Obama’s victory in the Maine caucuses follow on the heels of his Saturday sweep in which he won Louisiana’s primary contest as well as caucuses in the states of Washington and Nebraska. His winning margins ranged from substantial to crushing. In Maine, he led 59 percent to 40 percent with 99 percent of the precints reporting. In Louisiana, Obama defeated Clinton, 57 percent to 36 percent. He won in Nebraska by a 68 percent to 32 percent margin and in Washington 68 percent to 31 percent.”
TheStateOf . . . Obama. Is anyone else out there as addicted to this as Rich and me (J). We sit up text-messaging about the campaign all weekend! Barack should do well in Virginia, DC and Maryland on Tuesday, then it’s on to crucial votes in Texas, Ohio and, later, Pennsylvania.
