Obama wins Wyoming caucuses

Posted by: Glenn Blain - Posted in 2008, Barack Obama, Hillary Clinton on Mar 08, 2008

There were not a whole lot of delegates at stake, but Barack Obama did score a victory in today’s Wyoming caucuses and, perhaps, gain back at least some of the momentum he lost by losing primaries in Texas and Ohio earlier this week.

Obama, according to an Associated Press account, won seven delegates, compared to five for Hillary Clinton.

 It was also Obama’s 13th victory in a caucus state. Clinton has only three.

    Hooray! Chauncey Gardner has won again.

    I only wish the great Jerzy Kozinski were alive to novelize this election season.

    Obama is perhaps the most shallow candidate we Americans have seen as a legitimate contender for the presidency this late in the primary season since John Edwards, in 2004. The Illinois Senator, with three full years in the US upper house, is the exemplification of the Manchurian Candidate.

    Morris Udall is turning in his grave.

    How exactly can you say that Obama lost Texas when he won the delegate count there?

    Hillary is not going to go out without a fight
    She has a claim to florida…and the last thing
    the democrat party needs is to reject the voters
    of florida after the 2000 election debacle
    Hillary Clinton will spend the next 7 weeks until
    the Pa primary creating as much doubt as she
    can about the ability of Obama to lead the nation
    even if she has to compliment McCain in the process
    to set up the ultimate confrontation between
    two battle scarred senators…
