Hillary Clinton Secures a Big Meaningless Victory in West Virgina
by John Little on 13/05/2008I guess it gives her something to talk about as she drags this thing out:
Hillary Rodham Clinton coasted to a large but largely symbolic victory in working-class West Virginia on Tuesday, handing Barack Obama one of his worst defeats of the campaign yet scarcely slowing his march toward the Democratic presidential nomination.
“I am more determined than ever to carry on this campaign until everyone has had a chance to make their voices heard,” Clinton told supporters as the scope of her triumph became clear. “This race isn’t over yet. Neither of us has the total delegates it takes to win.”
Whatever. The real winner here is McCain. The exit polls and Obama’s incredibly poor performance here point to weaknesses that McCain can exploit. McCain can also continue to chill out while Hillary and Obama slug it out a while longer.
