...inconclusive." As exit polls pointed to strong Obama showings in what were once solid Clinton states, the Clinton campaign tried to raise the bar for Obama, suggesting that a failure to win California would be a setback after that Oprahpalooza over the weekend. Clinton's projected win in the Golden State was surely her biggest prize of the night, while victories in Oklahoma, Tennessee and Arkansas helped make her case that Obama is not the only one who can carry a red state. Latino voters, especially Hispanic women, continued to provide Clinton a crucial edge in states like New Jersey...

Though Pleshette never became a blockbuster star, she often outshone weaker material in film (Jerry Lewis' 1958 Geisha Boy) and onstage (she met future husband Tom Poston in 1959's Golden Fleecing). Pleshette gained millions of fans on TV shows ranging from Dr. Kildare in the '60s to the more recent Will & Grace, where she had guest appearances.
