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.

    Squabbling

    My partner and I originally supported John Edwards, then Hiliary. But if Obama wins the nomination, we'll do our darndest to ensure he wins.

    It's not just about "the candidate," it's about WHO sits on the Supreme Court, it's about WHO runs OSHA, FDA, etc. Or do the die-hard Hiliary supporters or die-hard Obama supporters really want 4-8 years of John "let's bomb Iran" McCain?

    No matter who wins the nomination for the Dems, they've got my vote, my financial support and my labor.

    For those who cry about not showing up in november, because the other candidate is "impure?" Do you really want more of the same?
