Clinton coming in third in Oregon behind Barack and McCain

This is pretty funny. In Oregon, Hillary Clinton can't even beat John McCain:

  • Clinton: 230,796 (86% reporting)
  • McCain: 255,471 (86% reporting)

Meanwhile in Kentucky, Obama defeated McCain:

  • Obama: 209,711
  • McCain: 142,855

And in West Virginia, Obama also finished ahead McCain:

  • Obama: 91,747
  • McCain: 89,782

So Obama takes his two worst drubbings of the campaign...but still gets more votes than John McCain in each one of them. Hillary Clinton suffers a moderately large defeat, and also loses John McCain by a significant margin. Who's more electable now?
