Obama Wins Mississippi?

Not a real big surprise here, but Fox is already calling it for Barack Obama, although the numbers do seem to be yo-yo'ing back and forth between him and Hillary, and right now question will be how much will he win by because that will determine how many additional delegates he receives compared to Hillary Clinton.

As most already know, the Democrats use a very strange system that gets them almost nowhere quickly of awarding delegates proportionally, which means to make it simply, that if Obama get 60 percent of the state vote, he will earn about 60 percent of the overall delegates and Mississippi has 33 delegates in play.

So however more delegates Obama gets from Mississippi will simply add to the lead in delegates that he already holds over Clinton.

right now, depending on what reports you are looking at, he has anywhere from 106 to 110 MORE than Clinton has, and that was before Mississippi.

We will update later with how badly he beat her in Mississippi.

CNN and MSNBC are also saying Obama takes Mississippi.
