at least for me it is. : )
Clinton, the former first lady who finished third in Iowa, was mounting an unexpectedly stiff challenge to Obama in the nation's first primary. Interviews with voters leaving their polling places showed she was winning handily among registered Democrats, while her rival led her by an even larger margin among independents.
Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton moved out to a surprising lead over Sen. Barack Obama in the Democratic race.
She had 39 percent of the vote in the Democratic primary to 34 percent for Obama, who is seeking to become the nation's first black president.Clinton's performance, based on the early returns, surprised even her own inner circle.
About one-third said if Bill Clinton were running, they would have voted for him on Tuesday.
Clinton, for her part, retooled her appeal to voters on the run. She lessened her emphasis on experience, and sought instead to raise questions about Obama's ability to bring about the change he promised.
Hillary is going to take NY and California.
