1. Don't forget Delaware another middle atlantic state went to Obama

2. Good for him.

Hillary did win, but he made some progress.

[Coexist]

3. Per CNN: in New Jersey, Clinton - 53% Obama - 45% only 8%

11. bergen county not in, she'll smash obama there

[Kittycat]

4. Excellent. Much better than the original projections.

Gobama!

[THUNDER HANDS]

5. he got 40%

that's all he had to do to keep the delegates even.

[GoldieAZ49]

6. It will be interesting to see the delegate count, those are not available yet

none of these are as close as NV was, but a good showing none the less

[sfam]

7. Not getting 60% in NY really hurts, especially with Illinois so high

Hillary's folks have got to be bugged about that...

[Tarc]

8. Must be NonSense's fuzzy math again.

MA: +14
NJ: +8
NY: +18
CT: -3

Nobama squeaks one out, gets mauled in two, and is eaten comfortably on one. And that is a "dampening" of Clinton's Northeast showing?

I pity you. Seriously,

10. You don't get it do you? It's the delegates! n/t

[Tarc]

12. And that means...ding ding ding..that he trails in that area too

Boy, the light is on, but nobody's home.

[ProSense]

14. You don't get it, admit it! n/t

[Tarc]

17. I accept your capitulation

[MH1]

15. Those margins are MUCH lower than she was polling a couple weeks ago

Obama closed the gap quite a bit in that time, and meanwhile trounced her in his home state and at least one other.

[Tarc]

18. Obama also fared a lot worse than many of this week's polls had him at

If the polls were to be believed, he had a shot in Mass in NY, and in NJ. The reality? Smoked in all three.

9. Obama's wins are by much larger margins than Hillary's EXPECTED wins!

This is GREAT news for Obama! And now Hillary is giving a non-inspiring speech. Wait 'til Obama rocks the house with HIS speech!

[Captain Hilts]

13. The three most important pols in MA endorsed him and he lost by 15%. nt

[ProSense]

16. Only two to three weeks ago! That's significant! He could have lost by 30 to 35%

As it stands now, Obama neutralized Hillary's delegate counts in these key states and picked up big wins in other states.

19. Obama was never supposed to crack 40% in ANY of those states just a week ago.
