Obama Beats Hillary in Iowa Delegates

Ouch! That’ll leave a mark….. Doh

Via Ben Smith’s Blog – Politico.com:

A pretty stunning gain out of Iowa for Obama, where an Iowa Democratic official confirmed to me just now that the county convention results will translate into a 25-14-6 edge for Obama over Clinton and Edwards.

That’s a gain of nine  for the Illinois Senator over the results reported in January, while Clinton lost one delegate. (Edwards lost eight).

It’s a welcome — and meaningful — gain for Obama on a tough weekend, and a result both of his long, hard work in Iowa and of a situation in which Clinton’s attacks seem to be turning off party activists.

Let’s see Hillary try and spin that one. But knowing her, like I do, she will try and put some sort of silly Political Spin on it.

This should be an interesting story to follow.
