Based on the Maine results thread at Daily Kos, it seems that Obama is generally overperforming expectations. Lots of first-hand accounts from caucusgoers saying that Obama won big at their caucus locations.

Just saw that Obama has a 50%-48% lead with 11% reporting. Based on what I'm reading at Daily Kos, Obama is winning big in the cities (Portland area, Bangor area) and is winning by smaller margins in the more rural areas.

Also just saw that Hillary's campaign manager Patti Solis Doyle has been FIRED! She is being replaced by Maggie Williams.

50-48 is the CNN entrance poll, apparently, not the results so far.

You are correct! My bad.

CNN says with 11% reporting it's 50-48 Obama...

Link? I don't think any official results will be reported until the last caucuses end at 8:00 PM EST.

I think the 50%-48% you saw is an entrance poll.

Obama got 15 of the 25 delegates in Old Town (larger town just north of Bangor/Orono).

Obama is extremely charismatic, but relatively inexperienced. He has had a lot of success in a very short time, and it would be folly to expect that it does not effect him, as it effects anyone.

Experience is extremely overrated, judgement is much more important. As has been mentioned many times before, the Bush adminstration was among the most experienced in our nation's history.

The truth is that American voters aren't looking for the same old experienced Washington politicians at this point in history.
