Los Angeles: Senator Barack Obama topped a Clinton in another contest on Sunday – the Grammys.
The Democratic presidential candidate beat both former Presidents Bill Clinton and Jimmy Carter to win best spoken word album for his audio version of his book The Audacity Of Hope: Thoughts On Reclaiming The American Dream.
Clinton was nominated for his book Giving: How Each of Us Can Change the World and Carter for Sunday Mornings in Plains: Bringing Peace to a Changing World. Also nominated was poet Maya Angelou and actor Alan Alda.
Senators Obama and Hillary Rodham Clinton are battling for the Democratic nomination for President; both have won key states, though Obama has the most recent wins, capturing the Louisiana primary and caucuses in Nebraska and Washington state on Saturday.
Though Clinton and Carter lost, they both have won the category before (Clinton, twice).
Hillary Rodham Clinton took home a Grammy in 1996 for her audio version of the book, It Takes A Village.
