NPR: Hillary Wins West Virginia

Hillary Wins West Virginia

Hillary Clinton has won the Democratic Primary in West Virginia. Based on exit polls and early returns, NPR projects Clinton will easily defeat rival Barack Obama. NPR's David Greene is in Charleston, West Virginia, where Hillary Clinton is holding a victory party tonight. Greene says, Clinton's campaign is using the West Virginia victory to gain some much needed momentum.

I don't know what the fuss is about. The democratic voters that won't vote for Obama are more than made up by independents and disillusioned moderate republican voters.
