YES WE CAN!
This is great news for Tennessee too. If 43% of whites in Tennessee vote for Clinton, Obama will win here too.
Big win in GA. 64% vs 31%.
Big win in GA. 64% vs 31%. I'm not so sure about TN. I think I'm the only non-student in Knoxville with an Obama sticker on my car. I haven't seen any Obama signs anywhere (and I live in East Knoxville..a few miles away from Obama HQ). California is going to be very interesting.

I saw an Obama sticker on
I saw an Obama sticker on someone at the church Shrove Tuesday Pancake supper. The sticker was covering his Edwards pin.
I wasn't out other than supper (about two miles from my house) to vote (six blocks) and a quick run to pic up a Valentine card for my 15-year-old godson whose playing exchange student in Italy. I saw a few Obama car stickers along the way, when I went to Bearden but there was surprisingly little activity away from the polling places.
