RealClearPolitics has the latest numbers out of West Virginia and Kentucky, and the extraordinary weakness of Obama is revealed by his inability to rally support in either state. 

The Blogging Caesar projects both states in the McCain column come the fall, but the scale of Hillary's expected wins ahead underscore that these two states won't require much effort from John McCain in the fall.

Speaking of the Blogging Caesar, this is your go-to map for the state of the electoral college. Scott Elliot spares you the national head-to-head nonsense and breaks down the state-by-state McCain-Obama races in the only style of analysis that matters.  The candidates are in essence in a dead heat as the real race begins, and Obama's miserable finish gives the GOP a lot of reasons to hope for holding on to the White House.
