Good Night for Obama


Assuming that Obama wins in Louisiana, as projected (turnout is expected to be low, and the African American population is less than a few years ago due to Katrina and Rita), Obama will sweep today's contests. He did extraordinarily well in Washington (67%-32%) and Nebraska (68%-32%).
And of course tomorrow there are caucuses in Maine, and Obama is expected to do well. Obama has proven very able to get out the caucus goers.
All in all, good news as we move forward. Hillary is looking to Texas and Ohio as her fire wall. That very well may be. She has a lead there right now, but then again, before Iowa and New Hampshire, Rudy was leading in Florida. If the momentum begins to build, things could quickly change.
UPDATE: It's 7:30 PM PST and it looks like Obama is winning fairly handily in Louisiana -- 53-38 % at last look.

Comments

Obama also won the U.S. Virgin Islands, today, although no network mentioned it. Tomorrow, Maine.

I wrote the campaign today with some ideas for how they can win Ohio and Texas in March which could sew this up.
