10:34 p.m. | Rural Wisconsin: From partial returns in Wisconsin, it looks like Mrs. Clinton won in only some of the rural fringes. Mr. Obama totally dominated the state, including the blue-collar, lower-income areas where she campaigned.

CNN says itÕs going to replay some of Mrs. ClintonÕs speech that it cut off.

Also Ñ To correct an earlier projection on electability based on the exit polls, 63 percent of Wisconsin voters said Mr. Obama was more electable, while 37 percent said Mrs. Clinton was electable. (We had said that the difference was about two-to-one.)

And while we are taking care of some housekeeping É While Mr. Obama said his crowd in Houston numbered 20,000, his campaign now has the official count from the Houston fire marshal: 18,500.

10:25 p.m. | Getting Air: CNN occasionally split the screen, giving us some hard numbers to look at. But mostly, the cameras on all networks stayed on his entire speech.
