Democratic Presidential hopeful Barack Obama won four state primaries in a row over the weekend, placing him in the lead in the delegate count for the Democratic nomination.
Obama picked up wins in Washington state, Louisiana, Nebraska, and Maine. He is also expected to win most of the primaries on Tuesday of this week, which will take place in Hawaii, the District of Columbia, Wisconsin, Maryland, and Virginia.
As expected, the scenario of an Obama sweep this weekend and a potential sweep on Tuesday has placed the Hillary Rodham Clinton campaign in damage control mode.
The New York Senator embarked on a major campaign shakeup over the weekend, resulting in her longtime campaign manager, Patti Solis Doyle, stepping down. Her replacement is longtime Clinton aide Maggie Williams.
With Obama poised to potentially win 9 primaries in a row, the Clinton campaign is desperately seeking a way to stop her mounting losses which, if they continue, will result in an Obama avalanche that cannot be thwarted.
