Over 14 million Americans voted in the Democratic primaries on Tuesday. The difference between Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton was a whopping 60,000 - 0.4%. Clinton's lead in New Mexico, as of now, is 117 votes with over 16,000 provisional ballots uncounted.
Clinton's camp is spinning this as "tremendous victories" (Jane Hamsher at Firedoglake called Tuesday a "devastating loss" for Obama). Obama is slightly more subdued, he is only claiming that he "won." The truth is, it was a tie, a draw, a wash, a dead heat. No one won; no one lost. The fighters took a mutual standing eight count and will go on to the next round.
