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.

I again assert that if the tables were turned and she'd won the number of states and delegates that he has since Feb. 5th no major news outlet would be treating him as a serious option.
