Obama and Huckabee Have Great Weekend
Posted on February 11, 2008
Barack Obama had a good weekend. He won the caucuses in Washington, Virgina Islands and Maine. He also won the primary in Louisiana. All were expected wins for him. Tomorrow are the Virginia, Maryland and District of Columbia contest, which he is also expected to sweep.
On the Republican side, Mike Huckabee was the winner, taking Louisiana and Kansas. Washington was called for McCain, but Huckabee refused to concede and the count continues.
The big contests with lots of delegate are coming up on March 4th: Texas and Ohio will be crucial contests on the Democratic side. You can see a roundup, with estimated delegate counts here. Most outlets have Hillary Clinton ahead in the delegate count by a small margin.
Bottom line: McCain will be the Republican nominee and the Democratic nomination is a toss up.
