LOS ANGELES (Catholic Online) - All Major News Networks have called the crucial North Carolina Democratic primary for Senator Barack Obama, the Senator from Illinois.
The race in Indiana is still too close to call.
However, the pundits who had kept the possible "Double Clinton" possibility alive have now thrown in the towel.
Obama's support ran strong among African-American voters.
91 percent of Black North Carolina voters in North Carolina supported Senator Obama.
Pundits are now parsing the statistics among other segments of the voting public.His dominant youth vote was clear. The rest remains for later analysis.
The Senator will address his supporters at a "Victory Rally" in Raleigh, N.C.
Senator Hilary Clinton, who has kept the race alive surprising many and shaking all earlier projections, spoke with optimism at rallies throughout the day.
She told her supporters today: "We need to get on the track in America and get toward the finish line and change this country."
Covering all possibilities, Clinton was non-committal as it related to her possibly leaving the race if the results were not supportive saying: "Politics is unpredictable. So I'm just going to wait and see what the voters have to say."
Obama has faced extraordinary struggles in the wake of his controversial pastors' horrible comments.He also refused to enter the efforts at calling for a summer tax break on the gasoline tax, even in the wake of rapidly escalating prices at the pumps, calling his rivals support a "gimmick" with no lasting value.
The questions which await the coming results:Has the formerly ascendant Obama recaptured his momentum? Or, has the Senator from New York turned the tide?
