Count ‘em: Clinton Wins Five of Last Six Primaries

In his Media Notes today, titled “Networks Dismiss Hillary Landslide,” Howard Kurtz points out that Hillary Clinton – by his count – has won five of the last six contests. She has won Ohio, Texas, Pennsylvania, Indiana, and West Virginia. Barack won North Carolina.

Hillary’s 67-26% victory in West Virginia followed a week of the punditry colluding with the Obama camp to force her out of the race. After his win in North Carolina, the media evidently agreed unanimously that it was time for Obama’s coronation.

Unfortunately for the media, the people of West Virginia spoke very loudly and clearly: “Wait just a minute!”
