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.

    Take a look at these Obama numbers ...

    And tell me who has the greater appeal in the fall. These are the last ten contests:

    Louisiana: +21

    Nebraska: +36

    Washington: +37

    Maine: +19

    Virgin Islands: +82

    DC: +51

    Maryland: +23

    Virginia: +29

    Wisconsin: +17

    Hawaii: +52

    Add these to the poll after poll that shows Obama over Mccain by 6-8-10 points in Pennsylvania, Wisconsin, Minnesota, Virginia, Colorado, Iowa. And Hillary LOSING to that mummified phony. Now please: can Joan Walsh stop wondering 'gee, which of our candidates can beat McCain?'
