California may be Clinton country, but Barack Obama has won San Francisco, home of Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi and more than a half-dozen delegates. True, it's a symbolic win, but symbols are what we're looking at tonight. Mayor Gavin Newsom was a high profile Hillary backer, but the progressives on the Board of Supervisors and other bodies backed Barack. Numbers now in SF are Obama 52 % and Clinton 44% with 78 % counted.

I'm relieved that at least my now hometown San Francisco reflected my vote. (Would've loved if John Edwards had a fighting chance, but Obama was my 2nd choice). I was a little depressed that Billary won California. But whoever eventually wins, I just hope they get our soldiers out of Iraq immediately after. This war is tenuous and ridiculous.
