Man! I come here to read about another Obama victory in Maine, and I’m forced to turn to CNN?
With 44% reporting. It is Obama 57%, Clinton 42%, Uncommitted 1 %.
And on the Repub side. Romney in a runaway. All 18 delegates to the newly departed Mittster. McCain a respectable 2nd so far. The Huckalby is Fourth behind Ronald Paul. 68% reporting.
59% reporting. Obama 57%. Clinton 42%. Per CNN website. No idea what these numbers mean — given no knowledge of where the results are from or what that means.
24 delegates at stake. Plus 10 super delegates. Or so they say.

Why he Won
Update: Admission from a clearly unqualified political correspondent. The Republican results. Uh. They were in on February 2nd. So. Ignore what I said. People in Maine are not supporting a non-candidate. Repeat. People in Maine — they’re cool. Probably extraordinarily cool, given that it is February 10th.
70% Reporting. Obama has increased his lead to 17%. Obama 58%. Clinton 41%.
Another blowout in line with Saturday’s results? I’m sure the delegate advantage will be minor. No call in race yet. No delegate totals. At least per the CNN website.

BREAKING NEWS:
CNN – Obama Projected Winner!
"But I will not let myself be reduced to silence."Cool. Five straight, by my count. CNN reports 15 delegates to Obama. 9 to Clinton. With 70% of precincts reporting.
79% in. 59%-41% Obama over Clinton.
we won’t count Clintons out. They’re regrouping. But as BooMan pointed out Obama now has the big MO.
does anyone recall October 2007? Polls in Maine had Clinton 46 Obama 10.

I’m normally a very conservative political analyst. But — I’m ready to officially call it for the Disassociated Press. Obama wins Maine! Remember (the) Maine. It made all the difference.
Don’t tread on it. (Or is that New Hampshire). For more on state mottos. We’ll have to go to our reporter on the scene.
Joe unfortunately he froze to death trying to reach the caucus. His last words were “Christ its cold”. Possibly thats the Maine state motto. We’ll get back to you.
