Obama and McCain Lead As Fourth Quarter Begins

February 21st, 2008 • Richard Cochrane

Time is shortObama and McCain trounced their opponents in Wisconsin and both look ever more like their respective parties nominees. Obama continued to attractFire Wall what has become his base while doing well in overwhelmingly white Wisconsin. He also won in his native Hawaii. McCain handily won the Washington State primary. Huckabee and Paul took it squarely on their chins and both appear increasingly the fools. November looks like one of rhetoric versus reason. Hillary Clinton is banking everything on Ohio and Texas. Clinton leads Obama narrowly in Texas and by big margins in Ohio.

    It was below zero here in Wisconsin on Tuesday, ridiculous wind chill, and plenty of snow after a series of storms setting a record for the month… yet it was a record turnout for the state. Our little country precinct ran out of scanned ballots by 4pm and had to resort to the manual backups. This story repeated itself throughout the state. People didn’t have to watch for the results for too long becuase with only 1% of the return in the exit poles said it all. Everyone, watched Obama’s 45 minute victory lap…it was exiting to be a participant once more.
