Obama Sweeps Potomac Primaries - Also Picks Up the Support of The Nation Magazine

There are two links I want to bring to your attention this morning. The first is the Washington Post story [1]about Sen. Obama's victories in Maryland, Virginia and DC in yesterday's primaries. If you read almost the whole way through the article, you'll get to the part where it discusses the demographic breakdowns of the voters--- specifically, that Sen Obama did not just win by carrying large majorities of young voters or minority voters, but that he won in nearly every demographic subgroup. Young or old, black or white, liberal or moderate-- all turning out to vote in record numbers to put Sen. Obama in the White House and bring real change to our country.

The second link is also about the campaign, and that is The Nation's endorsement of Sen. Obama [2] as "the best chance to forge a new progressive majority." For those of you who read this blog and may still be sitting on the fence, I highly recommend reading it.
