Hillary Clinton won't be making a public appearance Tuesday night. So the job of commenting on Barack Obama's victory in Mississippi's Democratic primary apparently fell to Clinton's campaign manager, Maggie Williams. In a statement, Williams said:

We congratulate Senator Obama for his win in Mississippi and thank our supporters and volunteers there for their support, hard work, and long hours. Now we look forward to campaigning in Pennsylvania and around the country as this campaign continues.
