So today has been "Potomac Primary" day. Barack Obama has swept the three Dem contests, piling up big margins vs. Clinton Inc. The lighter-than-air senator from Illinois, on record as the most liberal member of the U.S. Senate, has definite "mo".
On the right, John McCain is handling the duplicitous Mike Huckabee pretty well, although the evangelical vote in Virginia has made that one somewhat closer.
Interesting to note: in the District of Columbia vote, as of right now Fox News shows 4890 total votes in the Republican primary, with 98% of the vote counted. That compares with more than 100,000 Democratic votes in D.C. And that's a reminder of another reason why a Democratic win this fall would be bad news: statehood for D.C. and two ironclad blue Senate seats forever.
