*    Another McCain staffer resigns, this time not because of the new internal campaign organization rule against lobbyists.

Senator John McCain’s chief advertising strategist, Mark McKinnon, announced Tuesday that he was resigning, following through on a vow he had made months ago not to work against the candidacy of Senator Barack Obama.

*   Clinton wins Kentucky big.  Obama won Oregon big and, thus, the majority of the Dem convention delegates.

*   Ron Paul took 15% of the Oregon vote on the Republican side.  Huckabee and Paul combined for 15% of the Kentucky vote.

*   The Clinton-Obama voting patterns in the Dem primary are very close to the Bush-Kerry voting patterns respectively.  Except, of course, for the fact that Obama has won.  Interestingly, Clinton's strongest support comes from throughout the Appalachian region from Pennsylvania, through Virginia, Georgia, Alabama and northeast Mississippi.  Odd.

Counties where Clinton won at least 60% of the Democratic primary vote.  Kentucky is excluded because the map was created before last night's primary.
