Feb. 20, 2008- Update (Results/Michele Obama)

Hello All,

Momentum is defintiely on the side of Senator Obama with his tenth straight victory and, thus far, 150 delegates (excluding superdelegates) ahead of Senator Clinton. At this point Senator Clinton actually needs victories in Ohio and Texas on March 4th a position that no candidate wants to be in. McCain also won his contest; all but solidifying his front-runner position.

Michelle Obama's comments " For the first time in my adult life I am proud of my country" has brought a little heat to the campaign. I thought I would find many more articles than I did (of course one article I found was from FOXNEWS); however it seems that although some people are scrutinzing the comment it seems to be few (for now). Cindy McCain tried to make a snide remark "... I don't know if you heard those words, but I have always loved the US" (paraphrased). Between cindy's "not so subtle" jab at Michelle and Senator McCain stating that we need " more than words eloquent words of hope" it almost resembled a possible Obama v. McCain '08 political bout.
