Look at this crap from CBS!
I guess they're going to spin this as Obama just wins the states with blacks. Even look at the headline: Clinton wins and Obama takes. HUH???????

Clinton Wins Indiana, Obama Takes N.C.

CBS News projects that Hillary Rodham Clinton will win the Indiana Democratic primary and Barack Obama will win in North Carolina. Clinton pulled off an Indiana win in what was a virtual must-win Midwestern state.
Obama's win mirrored earlier triumphs in Southern states with large black populations: Georgia, Alabama, Louisiana and South Carolina among them.

4. Does anyone watch them anymore?
Seriously?

Aren't they third in the ratings and their shows getting old.

Who still watches Survivor?

8. Don't know why they had to throw in the "black" states. NC has a lot of whites/Hispanics too.

11. But the Obama Campaign is always touting that he gets 90% of the black vote!
So is it not supposed to count now? Or can only the Obama Campaign notice it? Should the white vote not be noticed? Jeez.
