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.

    it's true....

    ...the majority of the voters and the media seem absolutely infatuated with Obama as a candidate. Face it...when have we ever had such a winning candidate for CHANGE like this before?

    After 200+ years of old white men in the top spot, no disrespect to any elderly folks, but isn't it about time to try a new perspective?

    I want Sen. Obama to do well in the primaries and become the next "leader of the free world", and to have a totally scandal free presidency. But you know what? it AIN'T GONNA HAPPEN.

    He's human and a politician and I expect a little dirt.

    just not TOO much, thank you very much.

    Maybe on tomorrow nights debate, because Hillary will be looking for the knock out punch, I'm expecting some kind of "scandolous" revelation about Obama.

    I've read about some issues involving Sen. Obama and his inconsistant stance, and imho, these need to be addressed. Some items might be construed as hypocritical and that's just not good. He needs to come out quick on these.

    But, you know what? As an informed voter, having read his books, different websites, news articles, speeches, and weighed his thoughts and ideas against these inconsistancys and decided, he's still head and shoulders above his competitors and I have faith that he will do the right thing.
