Hillary Whips Obama in Kentucky

This time it isn't the so-called uneducated white guy vote going her way again. I think Jeremiah Wright has made it tough for Obama to win over a white America. The sad thing is I can see these same whites voting for Obama in large numbers if they weren't subjected to Wright's anti-American conspiracy theorizing.

With votes counted from 23 percent of the Kentucky precincts, Clinton was gaining 54 percent support, compared with 42 percent for Obama.

Interviews with Kentucky voters leaving their polling places showed Clinton's victory was roughly as sweeping as the rout she fashioned last week in West Virginia.

Almost nine in 10 ballots were cast by whites, and the former first lady was winning their support overwhelmingly. She defeated her rival among voters of all age groups and incomes, the college educated and non-college educated, self-described liberals, moderates and conservatives.
