I posted on the GOP so let's look at the Dem race. I think the bigger news than the Obama win is the Clinton 3rd place finsih. Edwards was second, followed closely by Hillary. She was supposed to be the shoe in.
The New York Times called it “a startling setback for Senator Hillary Rodham Clinton.” (NY Times) That's an understatement.
The Washington Post gushed over Obama. (Washington Post)
From Peggy Noonan: It's huge. Even though people have been talking about this possibility for six weeks now, it's still huge. She had the money, she had the organization, the party's stars, she had Elvis behind her, and the Clinton name in a base that loved Bill. And she lost. There are always a lot of reasons for a loss, but the Ur reason in this case, the thing it all comes down to? There's something about her that makes you look, watch, think, look again, weigh and say: No. (WSJ)
