The press turned on Obama awhile ago. They bought into Clinton's accusations 100%. So, very little reporting on the CA delegate gains, very little reporting on the fact Obama actually won TX in terms of delegates, and no one is talking about how, despite losing Ohio and Rhode Island, Obama has
increased his delegate lead over the past week.
Now there's Mississippi, and what are the press reporting? Aside for the obligatory mention that Obama won, they're also quick to point out that he "only" got 25% of the white vote. What they aren't quick to point out is that Clinton only got 10% of the black vote. So, in reality, Obama did a better job of crossing over racial lines than Clinton did. But that's not the spin you'll see in the stories.
