| This is the thread to discuss all things election related this evening. To kick things off: Obama wins Vermont, handily, as expected. From what I hear the other three are tight. UPDATE: According to CNN, McCain has won Texas, Ohio, Vermont, and Rhode Island, thereby securing the Republican nomination. Guess Huckabee should have majored in math after all. UPDATE: Clinton projected to win Rhode Island. UPDATE: CNN is projecting that both my children are now in bed ... |

| Looks like Obama has won Maine in something of a blowout. This was a state that was widely expected to go to Clinton, and in which she had a commanding lead in the polls through late last year. At this point she's got to be wishing everyone could just go to sleep until the Texas primary. On the bright side, she's got a very, very narrow lead in New Mexico, with 99% reporting. In other rumorish news, it suuure sounds like Colin Powell's getting ready to endorse Obama: ... |

The Republican primary endgame
McCain will likely take it after all |

| The Republican primary race has been astonishing from the word go -- less the embarrassment of riches of the Dem side than just ... embarrassment. It's been a roller coaster. Nonetheless, I'm going to go on the record predicting that McCain will take it. Here's how I see it. Way back when, Santorum lost his Senate race and Bill Frist became a national joke and George Allen became a noncandidate thanks to macaca. At that point, everyone thought it was McCain's to lose ... |

Huckabee is one of just two GOP candidates who support a cap-and-trade system to fight climate change (McCain is the other), although Huckabee hasn't c ... |

| Sounds like they've called the Iowa caucuses. Huckabee's the huge winner on the R side, with Romney an anemic second. Obama got a very narrow win on the D side (35%), with Edwards and Clinton effectively tied for second with 31%. Interestinger and interestinger. UPDATE: OK, the final looks like 37% Obama, 30% Edwards, and 29% Clinton. Clinton only won a single age group: 65+ Obama overwhelmingly won the under-30 crowd, which turned out in record numbers. The tota ... |
