So first off in local news, or US news, Hillary scores a 2% victory in Indiana, 2%, only 2%.  But it is a win for camp Clinton, Obama racked up a much larger margin of victory in North Carolina close to 14%.  Now as cool as those numbers are, the big winner in todays world is Dimitry Medvedev, he got the right numbers, he got the magic numbers.  Dimitry took the helm today of great mother Russia and was ceremoniously handed the nuclear suitcase.  All you cold war buffs, the ancient lure of a suitcase handcuffed to a KGB officers arm came back one more time for the cameras, and man was it cool!  All the sci-fi buffs and domesday fans must have been going berserk!  What does this mean for the US, not much being a quasi clone of Putin, Putin II is expected to rule with a business as usual approach.  We will soon see, fingers crossed.
