[0:09] presidential nomination. This was Junior
[0:11] Tuesday and here are the latest results
[0:13] in the eight states that had primaries
[0:15] today, the biggest prize so far in this
[0:18] campaign. It was a clean sweep for
[0:20] Senator Bob Dole. He won an important
[0:22] race in delegate rich Georgia, which Pat
[0:25] Buchanan head said was pivotal to him.
[0:27] It was a big win for Dole in
[0:28] Massachusetts. second in the delegate
[0:30] count. There were also Dole victories
[0:32] tonight in Maryland, Vermont, Rhode
[0:34] Island, and Maine. Steve Forbes had
[0:37] targeted Connecticut, but Dole prevailed
[0:39] there as he did in Colorado, where Steve
[0:41] Forbes also has spent a lot of time and
[0:44] money. This is the night that has turned
[0:46] the Dole campaign around. Looking at the
[0:48] delegate board, you can see that Bob
[0:50] Dole now has a commanding lead. Joining
[0:53] us now is our Washington bureau chief
[0:55] and moderator of Meet the Press, Tim
[0:57] Russard. Tim, with all the good news for
[0:59] Bob Null, some bad news tonight as well.
[1:02] It turns out that Pat Buchanan says he
[1:04] wants to stay in the race all the way to
[1:06] San Diego to keep the issues before
[1:08] Senator Dole. Is that going to be a
[1:09] problem for the front runner?
