From CNN Deputy Political Director Paul Steinhauser 
Obama campaigned in Montana Monday while Clinton campaigned in Kentucky the day before the state's primary.
 (CNN) — It's all about location, location, location. Sen. Hillary Clinton will spend Tuesday night in Kentucky to celebrate what's expected to be a big win in that state's primary. But Sen. Barack Obama won't be in Oregon, even though he's favored to win that state's contest Tuesday. The Illinois senator will appear at a rally in Iowa, where he kicked off the primary season with a January 3 caucus win — a victory that helped propel him to Democratic front-runner status. Iowa is also a swing state — one President Bush won by just 10,000 votes in 2004, and one the Democrats would love to win this November. Obama told reporters Sunday that visiting Iowa "was a terrific way to kind of bring things full circle." Filed under: Barack Obama • Hillary Clinton • Kentucky • Oregon Posted: 09:25 AM ET
From CNN Chief National Correspondent John King 
Sen. Obama is favored in Oregon's Democratic primary.
(CNN) — At first glance, the expectations game in Tuesday's Democratic primaries could appear counterintuitive. Kentucky has a much higher percentage of African-American residents (7.3 percent) than Oregon (2 percent), yet Sen. Hillary Clinton is favored to win big in Kentucky, and Sen. Barack Obama is the heavy favorite in Oregon. Why? Filed under: Barack Obama • Hillary Clinton • Kentucky • Oregon |
