OK, I'm calling it for OMS and I'm going to have a little sip of wine...
UPDATE: Obama wins majority of pledged delegates!!

If he has not acquired the pledged delegates in Kentucky, he will in Oregon. So congratulations!

I'm thinking about all you folks who have contributed to our little website here and elsewhere on the blogosphere. I'm thinking about all of our volunteer work. I'm thinking about icebergslim, Vermonter, wizinit, Keith and most of all psericks who should have some Iowa photos for us by tomorrow. This is a major milestone but there's more to do tomorrow!

What are you watching and reading?  Today I will be watching to see what (if anything) the MSM and blogosphere analysis does with the interesting contrasts between a predominately white progressive state and a predominately white Appalachian state.   For background on that check:

"It's an Appalachia Problem, Not a White Problem"

Houle's piece White Voters, Obama and Appalachia 

Giordano's review of a NYT piece Operation Anti-Chaos: The Narrative on “White Voters” Is Fiction

Sam Stein also puts it together: How Oregon Could Help Obama Defy "White Working Class" Problem

Finally check out latest Oregon Survey USA detail data.

 

Likely voters for Obama from SUSA:

male by 62-34

female by 49-49

white by 54-43 

pro-choice voters by 59-39 

liberal by 63-36
