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.

    @ pricilla

    Actually, the press was pointing out the truth - that this was a non-story put out by a desperate campaign trying to stave off yet another loss. Well they got their 48 hours of news out of it and too bad it didn't do them a damn bit of good.

    Oh and by the way, those lies about Iraq? Apparently Hillary bought them too because she voted to authorize the war.

    You're not exactly making a case for Hillary.
