Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton beat Sen. Barack Obama in the Nevada Democratic caucuses today, while
former Massachusetts governor Mitt Romney prevailed earlier in the Nevada Republican caucuses.

NBC and Fox News Channel has called the race for Clinton. With 35 percent of the vote counted,
Clinton led with 50 percent to 45 percent for Obama (Ill.) Former senator John Edwards trailed
far behind with five percent.

"It's Hillary that's going to deal with the economic issues," said campaign chairman Terry
