Hillary Clinton wins New Mexico primary

Hillary Clinton has been declared the winner of the New Mexico primary after a late vote count.  Voters in New Mexico went to the polls back on February 5th (Super Tuesday), but administrative difficulties delayed finalizing the results until now. 

This win means that Clinton can add some much needed delegates to her total. Plus she scores bragging rights and can say it loud, "I won and I'm proud!" Look for her to shout victory from the hilltops (and every media outlet), after taking a humiliating (or simply humbling, at best) licking in the press for losing every single primary contest since Super Tuesday.   

The bad news for Clinton?  This win does not break Barack Obama's post Super Tuesday winning streak or indicate any decline in his momentum, since the voting took place nearly 2 weeks ago.

But whatever.  A win is a win.  And in this close race, nothing to sneeze at.
