Obama Beats McCain in 4 More Key States

McCain is really in for a spanking. Here are the results from new polls in 4 key battleground states:

COLORADO: Obama 49 - McCain 44
MICHIGAN: Obama 48 - McCain 42
MINNESOTA: Obama 54 - McCain 37
WISCONSIN: Obama 52 - McCain 39

Also, Obama leads by a whopping 9-21% with independent voters:

COLORADO: 51 – 39 percent among independent voters;
MICHIGAN: 46 – 38 percent among independents;
MINNESOTA: 54 – 33 percent with independents;
WISCONSIN: 50 – 37 percent with independents.

Ambinder says:
[T]he make-up and mood of the 2008 presidential electorate is right now perfectly trimmed to embrace Barack Obama. As Quinnipiac puts it, "[a]n emerging Democratic coalition of women, minorities and younger voters is propelling Illinois Sen. Barack Obama to leads."

Obama Wisconsin Primary Victory Speech

See below for the video of Obama's rousing victory speech after winning a double-digit victory last night in Wisconsin (and before the news came out that he won Hawaii by 52 points).

His best line of the night: "Houston, I think we've achieved liftoff here." And how!

Mini-Live-Blog - Wisconsin and Hawaii

9:09 AM Weds. - I just woke up and saw Obama's numbers in Hawaii. He won 76% to 24%, a 52 point spread!

11:30 - Sorry, got was on a call with mums. Latest numbers show that Obama won Wisconsin by 15 points! Off to bed!

10:19 - I'm still watching the Obama speech but I just wanted to point out the current spread. Obama is currently beating Clinton by a 13-point margin in Wisconsin.

10:05 - Another great speech by Obama. I wonder if Hillary's earlier speech was specifically scheduled to preempt Obama's scheduled speaking time. I noticed, for the third consecutive time, that she failed to congratulate Obama on his win.

9:20 - Obama wins Wisconsin by a double-digit margin. More to come on Hawaii.

Video of Obama's Speech in Wisconsin

Here's a short clip of a recent Obama speech in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. He does a great job of rebutting Clinton's silly line of "speeches don't put food on the table". He agrees that speeches, by themselves, don't put food on the table.
