OBAMA TAKES ALL 3; AS HILLARY CRIES AGAIN

Sen. Barack Obama won caucuses in Nebraska and Washington state and moved ahead in the Louisiana primary Saturday night, slicing into Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton’s slender delegate lead in their historic race for the Democratic presidential nomination.

The Illinois senator also won caucuses in the Virgin Islands with nearly 90 percent of the vote.

He was winning roughly two-thirds of the vote in Washington state and Nebraska.

Early returns from Louisiana precincts showed him leading the former first lady, a black man hoping to extend a string of Southern primary triumphs that already included South Carolina, Alabama and Georgia.

Clinton made no mention of the night’s contests as she appeared at a Democratic Party dinner in Virginia, site of one of three primaries this Tuesday.
