By a pretty big margin and yet only nets 2 delegates. The Democrats really should rethink their system:<\/p>\n
Barack Obama\u2019s campaign began to reclaim lost momentum Saturday, beating Hillary Clinton by double digits in the Wyoming caucuses on the road to more critical upcoming contests.
\nThe caucuses only offered 12 total delegates, but both candidates campaigned there and drew rare attention to the state as well as historic turnout.
\nWith 96 percent of precincts reporting, Obama had 59 percent to Clinton\u2019s 40 percent.
\n\u201cIt\u2019s a big win,\u201d Obama spokesman Robert Gibbs said. \u201cIt adds to our momentum, it adds to our delegate lead on the road to becoming the nominee.\u201d
\nAssociated Press tallies showed the delegate bonus was negligible. Obama was projected to win seven delegates to Clinton\u2019s five.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"By a pretty big margin and yet only nets 2 delegates.
