“You’ve got that Barack Obama feeling, too”
On the day that Obama sweeps primaries in Nebraska, Louisiana, and Washington, Governor Tim Kaine of Virginia delivers an impassioned plea of support for the Senator at Saturday’s Jefferson-Jackson dinner in Richmond, Virginia, rallying supporters to the cheer of “Yes, we can.”
Hillary Clinton spoke earlier on Saturday, both candidates seeking the 101 delegates the commonwealth of Virginia would confer.
The “Potomac primary”/”Chesapeake contest” is next up this Tuesday, and Obama has won the all-important momentum.

Any Democratic candidate who cannot win California and
New York should call it a day.
Obama could not win a single Electoral College megastate vital for
any Democratic candidate, with the sole exception of
his own home base of Illinois.
OBAMA TROUNCED IN THE MEGA-STATES
He proudly lists Alaska, Idaho, Kansas, North
Dakota, and Utah. What do these states have in common?
They are states which a Democrat could never win in a
general election.
Delaware is a perfect state for Obama ri h
Volvo-driving, chablis and brie elitists in the
Philadelphia suburbs, but it does not look like
America. Colorado is another Obama state where the
well-off suburban voter can be decisive in a
Democratic primary. True, Obama won Connecticut, which
has some union voters, but it looks like Greenwich,
Cos Cob, and Yale carried the day. Missouri might fall
to Clinton on a recount; in any case, the race was
very close. Minnesota is a special case because of the
Democrat Farmer-Labor Party; this was in any case a
state that went for Mondale, for various reasons not
a good bellwether.
Love your liberty? Why add amendment to the constitution?
Love your liberty? Why support warrantless wiretapping?
And a smoking ban.
Shalom,
