Will Rhode Island continue to be Clinton country?
Now that Super Tuesday is over, campaigns are focusing on the remaining primaries – including the increasingly relevant March 4 Rhode Island primary.
The Clintons are well known here. Bill Clinton and Hillary came to the state more than a dozen times during the eight years of the Clinton presidency. Bill Clinton raised money at Mark and Susan Weiner's house in East Greenwich. He campaigned for Myrth York, Jack Reed and Patrick Kennedy.
In turn, Rhode Island voters delivered big numbers to Clinton in 1992 and 1996.
Thursday in projo.com and in print, staff writers Scott MacKay and Mark Arsenault will talk to the Clinton and Obama campaigns about their plans for Rhode Island. The story will also catch up with the Romney and McCain organizations.

Patrick Kennedy returned the favor by endorsing Obama. I will keep this in mind.
