Yes, I do think that's an Obama tshirt over Clinton's shoulder tonight.

(If it were a GOP rally, he'd be dragged out and beaten.)

Not related the photo -- not directly anyway -- but I wanted to chime in. It's being reported that in MD and VA, Obama and Clinton roughly split the "white" vote. Will this be the end of Hillary's patronizing the "black" voters as being THE reason for her losses? Will Obama continue to draw "white" voters in WI, TX, and OH?

Time will tell, but I think it's politically smart for Obama to be campaigning in WI, because an Obama win there will further belie the meme that he's merely the Black candidate. Still, an Obama win in WI is not assured.

Maybe.

Importantly, I haven't seen the Clinton campaign making that claim anywhere yet this morning.

Of course, I think they're reeling.

And, from what I've read, Obama is leaning ahead in Wi, although I can't really back that up. The fact that Clinton went to deep Hispanic Texas last night instead of Wi, kind of underlies that impression.
