Are average Americans more like the voters in Kentucky or like the voters in Oregon?

As the pundits try to unwrap what happened yesterday, one thing should be clear: Hillary won the night on Tuesday.

No matter how hard Obama tries to close the door on her, he cannot.

His effort to use Iowa to remind voters of the hope they ignited is pitiful. (How would the vote turn out today if Iowa voters could vote again? Are there any bitter voters who might change their vote?)

Is the most important result that Obama won Oregon? No.

With 88% of the Oregon vote counted, Obama leads Clinton by approximately 95,000 votes. If the trend continues, he will have beaten her by less than 120,000 votes. It seems like a big margin until you compare the numbers to Kentucky.

What matters is that at the end of the day, Clinton trounced Obama by 250,000 votes in Kentucky.

What matters is that HRod beat Obama 65% to 30% in Kentucky.

When the night's votes are counted, Clinton will have received at least 100,000 votes more than Obama.

How is this information not relevant to the primary run? To the Super Delegates?

Again, are average Americans more like the voters in Kentucky or the voters in Oregon?

The trajectory for Clinton is on the upswing, even as she faces a far left mainstream media that seeks to destroy her candidacy. (Does she now see the bias that conservatives have recognized for decades? It must be difficult for her to be on the receiving end of their ire...)

Clinton's speech writers should be fired up today- instead they seem to be asleep. Is their malaise purposeful? How badly does she want the nomination this year? Perhaps she does not.

As McCain and Obama continue their campaigns against each other, the Democratic movement will drift to the left. Obama will continue chastising Americans for wanting to live comfortable lives when others around the world struggle without air conditioning and McDonald's. Obama will slip in his speeches because he is young and inexperienced and arrogant.

Michelle Obama will continue to pout about her struggle to survive with a $300,000 per year job in a country as mean as America. (Thankfully, she no longer has to struggle under the burden of their student loans that they finally paid off - maybe someone should ask her what their student loan payments were every month and also what their interest rate happened to be...)

This is good news for Republicans. The country is not as extreme as Obama and his followers believe. Average Americans will begin to pay attention in September and they will see the naked Emperor and they will turn away from his disdain for the average American and the principles that have helped guide this country for well over 200 years. They will reject HIS efforts to use race to divide us. They will not be hoodwinked by a modern day shyster.

Unlike the Obamas, I have faith in the American people and the American Dream. Both are alive and well and both will win in November.
