Obama wins Wyoming
Voters buck state's history:
Wyoming is known as the “Equality State” because of the rights women have traditionally enjoyed there. Wyoming women were the first in the nation to vote, serve on juries and hold public office. Despite that history, the first serious female contender for the presidency was brushed aside today as Barack Obama handily won the Wyoming caucuses today by a 61% - 38% margin. No word on whether his cousin, Deadeye Dick, voted for him or not. 12 delegates were at stake in this state where only 675 statewide took part in the last caucuses in 2004. Nearly 10 times that number turned out to cast their votes today.

so, what is the case for Hillary Clinton? well, I think, if you delve into it there maynot be much of a case ...
