In case you missed it, Barack Obama took not one, not two, not even three, but four primaries/caucuses this weekend. The results: Washington (Obama 68%, Clinton 31%), Louisiana (Obama 57%, Clinton 36%) and Nebraska (Obama 68%, Clinton 32%), and as of this writing Obama is up 57% to 42% with 70% reporting in Maine.
And it only gets harder for Hillary from here. Open primaries, an energized grass roots organization, the press tripping over themselves to speculate about the speculations, its looking pretty good. Now don't get me wrong, I know Hillary won't go down without a fight, but I am beginning to think Barack can take Texas, despite what Boyd Richie and our disaster of a state party have to say about it. We shall see what the staffers have to say.
But damn, Obama won two by over 35%! I do believe they call that a sweep.
