Obama Overruns Potomac Primaries

Barack Obama is literally sweeping the nation with big wins in Virginia, Maryland and the District of Columbia tonight. He's getting 2 votes for every 1 Clinton vote in VA and MD and 3 to 1 in DC.

After tonight, Hillary Clinton can no longer claim that she leads in the popular vote.

Bob Cesca was liveblogging at Huffington Post and came up with this:

Total delegate count according to MSNBC:
Obama 1078
Clinton 969

Both campaigns told Howard Fineman that Senator Clinton will not be able to win a majority of pledged delegates.

Meanwhile, the Clinton campaign is falling apart. Clinton's Deputy Campaign Manager Mike Henry has resigned so that Maggie Williams can build her own team.
