Hillary won, but Obama shrugged
Clinton's lopsided victory in West Virginia, expected to be followed by another win in Kentucky, seems to be impressing no one outside of the Clinton campaign.
Here's the Politico's take, which notes, "The press is unimpressed. This may be the first time in election history in which the press has withdrawn from a race before the candidate."

Meanwhile, Obama is campaigning in Missouri, going after the white, working class folks that went for Clinton in West Virginia.

Is it over yet?
Comment removed.
Senator Obama gave a concession speech before the Virginia Primary.
Even Hillary knows that it is over. It is about time we come together as democrats and independents to support the democratic candidate - Obama; against the GOP smear machine.
I do not regret voting for Hillary but evrything that has a begining has got to have an end!
It's not over till the Lady H Sings
To all our better educated, higher-income, transcendental urban liberals:
Thank you for making it clear how unimportant the following are . . .
(1) Florida voters
(2) Michigan voters
(3) People from Kentucky
(4) Non-college educated people
(5) Working class white people
(6) Rural folks
(7) Reagan Democrats
(8) Independents
(9) Family values
(10) Everybody in West Virginia
(11) Everybody in Pennsylvania but Philadelphians
(12) The Military
(13) Veterans
(14) Women
(15) Retirees
Quite a list . . . surely it is but a minor cross-section of America.
With appreciation!
Signed,
The Rest-of-the-Working-Class
Thank God Sen. Obama won!!!
