One of Barack Obama's senior staffers just sent me the following about tonight's victory in Virginia: Read below.
It's not just the win that's impressed us, it's the coalition of voters we did it with.
Key point from exit polling in Virginia: Obama won Latino voters by ten points - 55-45.
Also, we won: Women by 16 points over Hillary
Every education and income level Every area of the state -- urban, suburban and rural Democrats, Republicans and Independents
White men by 12 points (55-43)
Every age group, including voters over 60
The Latino vote is a significant number. If he comes close to doing a number like this among Latinos in Texas. . . well folks, that could be game, set, match.
