Obama wins all February 9th primaries

We might look back on today as the moment when Barack Obama's campaign took off for the finish line.  He not only won in Washington, he dominated Washington.  He also defeated Clinton easily in Nebraska.  And although Louisiana was called last, that was a comfortable win for the Illinois Senator as well.

On a personal note, today I became an Obama delegate.  Three siblings of mine became alternates, and up north one of my cousins was named as a delegate as well.  Compared to the '04 caucus, this one was a unique experience that I will never forget, just because of the passion on the Obama side.  That very energy help attract many undecided voters today.

Now, back to the race.  It's Maine tomorrow, and then on Tuesday it's D.C., Maryland and Virginia.  Maine might go to Clinton, tomorrow.  But D.C., Maryland and Virginia should be Obama wins.  What an amazing moment!

*UPDATE (11:03 PM): Obama wins the Virgin Island with about 90% of the vote.  That's four wins tonight by Obama, and none for Clinton.
