Since Super Tuesday Obama has won 10 contests by between 17 and 82 points
So let's see how February ended up looking, post-Super Tuesday:

Louisiana: +21
Nebraska: +36
Washington: +37
Maine: +19
Virgin Islands: +82
DC: +51
Maryland: +23
Virginia: +29
Wisconsin: +17
Hawaii: +52

Everyone of them has been a landslide. From the lowest end (17-points) in Wisconsin to the biggest victory (82-points)in Virgin Islands. Only two of the ten states under 20-points and then just barely. Anyway you look at it it's still a pretty impressive showing.

3. Hey, the most recent (WI) had the smallest margin! Maybe his momentum is running out.

5. Can you imagine if Obama only lost one or two by those margins?
We'd be discussing Hillary's cabinet by now.

9. Check some of those Patriots scores.
Yogi said it best: "It ain't over 'til it's over."

11. Nobody said it's over.
Just pointing out a fact that Obama has won ten consecutive landslides in a row.

13. How nice for him.
Wonder how much it will mean if he loses to either Hillary or McCain?

23. Actually it is quite true.
Aside from not being able to beat Obama in the last 10 match-ups, she polls badly against McCain. Obama's numbers against McCain are much higher. What exactly isn't true?

10. Yes, but they weren't insufferably smug about it.
Sorry, had to say it. :)

19. Actually, you'll have to get Chris Matthews and MSNBC to do that. They're the ones who calculated
it. Unfortunately, I have a feeling they COUNT ALL THE STATES.

Hillary's 10 state strategy hasn't reached their desk yet.

21. Damn
I knew the numbers were high, but that's a HELLUVA big margin.

33 to 66 percent, or 2 to 1. :wow:
