How Obama won Wisconsin

The Illinois senator did well with campus liberals, white men, crossover Republicans and independents, but he made inroads into Clinton's working-class base too.

    @ Lynx

    So you like McCain then?

    No, fuck no. I won't vote for anyone. My state will go Democrat no matter what, so my vote would be purely symbolic. If I lived somewhere where it mattered, I would probably force myself to vote for OBama because I certainly don't want McCain.

    Like I said, it was a close choice. Close enough that speaking ability alone is enough. Clinton is also a lawyer, but she's not as experienced as Obama.

    What? I know this is not going to make a bit of difference to you, but Hillary has far more experience practicing and teaching law than Obama. She taught law in Arkansas, she became a partner at a law firm, she worked in Congress, she was a staff attorney for the children's defense fund.
