| Obama, McCain claim victory in Wisconsin http://www.cnn.com/2008/POLITICS/02/...sts/index.html
The victory marks the ninth consecutive win for Obama over rival Hillary Clinton since a split-decision on Super Tuesday two weeks ago.
Obomba's on a roll. His speech was quite impressive. Hillary same ole, same ole. McBush still being dogged by Huckleberry Hound.

And Clinton splitting the delegates just about up the middle with Obama. Who has the projected win again?
Couldn't resist.
PS. With the way those voting machines are running I wouldn't trust anything but the official vote count.

It felt good to finally vote for Ron Paul today, even if it was futile. I'll write him in before I vote for McCain or Clinton. |

It's only a projected win at the moment. Polls are still reporting. |

They'll be talking about Super Delegates on Anderson Cooper in a couple of minutes on CNN. May be informative. |

Here's another Hillary waffle for ya beemer: Quote:
The New York senator tried to battle back from her ninth straight loss to Obama since the Super Tuesday contests Feb. 5, vowing to fix trade agreements like the North American Free Trade Agreement, which have disproportionally hurt working-class voters in places like Ohio.
She also addressed the issue of trade — a vulnerability for the former first lady, who championed NAFTA while it was being negotiated during her husband's presidency. She has since become a NAFTA critic and has advocated a "time out" from similar trade agreements.
"My opponent has taken to attacking me on NAFTA. I've long been a critic of the shortcomings of NAFTA," Clinton said, noting that she wasn't in the Senate when the agreement was negotiated.
| She doesn't know whether she's coming or going. . .  |

There's a time line in there some where that may create context relevant to her supposed flip flop. Care to share the link(s)? |

Ok. Hillary called Obama to congratulate him for the win in Wisconsin. Up here we wait for all polls to report before anything is done. Why do you guys jump the gun before an official vote count and all polls reported in? |
