Obama wins Wisconsin

And Obama pre-empted* HIllary's speech by beginning his own, seemingly ahead of schedule. From where I sit, MSNBC thinks a plagiarized Obama address is better viewing than another non-concession to a non-loss from HRC.

*=To be fair, when John Kerry did this to John Edwards in (I believe) South Carolina in 2004, I thought it was obnoxious. But that's because I was rooting for Edwards. Now, as an Obama supporter, I think it's kind of awesome.

The first report I heard on this was that Hillary was scheduled for 8:30, pushed back to 9:15 and then expected Obama to push back his 9:30 scheduled start. He didn't and she got run over. Is there any way to verify if this is actually true?

Ideally there would be. Unfortunately, political reporters don't usually do any... reporting. So they'll just talk about how they (and the rest of America) perceive the bumping.
