Obama Takes Miss.

Which isn't really news. Had Clinton beat Obama in Miss., that would have been news. However the news from Miss. is that racially the vote is a repeat of South Carolina with whites voting the white candidate and blacks voting the black candidate.

But what is even worse, to me, is that the actions of Republicans, which I have been discussing, in messing with results. Clinton would have been worse had she not had all those Republican cross over votes going to her. Like I said in regards to cross over voting that went Obama's way: Are these votes that he (or she) would get come November? The DLC is has to be doing some number crunching to determine who in November will carry the all important electoral votes which, unlike the primaries are winner take all (with one exception I believe). Can Obama take states that usually vote Republican, like MS, in November? Can Clinton? Can Clinton take the small red states that Obama won primaries in and therefore break the Republican lock on the mid-section of the country? Can Obama?
