Are CNN and Fox going to cover Hawaii live? It looks like MSNBC isn't going to.

Hawaii Caucuses dont close till midnight tonight...so information wont start pouring out of the islands to early early Wedensday morning.

Chris Matthews just reminded us about three times just before the commercial break that we won't know who is actually winning until the results come in. Thanks, Chris!

he will be as giddy as a little school girl, along with his pal keith olbermann if obama wins.

Any media station that is not CNN is  strongly pro-Obama to you...so this statement is irrelevant.

Exit polling shows Obama has a substantial margin in Wisconsin...but too early to call.

lets count some votes before gloating.

if she loses 55-43...that is survivable.

Wisconsin was her "firewall" to block any of Obama's momentum going into March 4th....a 12 point loss is only going to make it worse. This ontop of a loss in Hawaii [tho I guess she still has a chance there] is a big blow.

McCain's speech is really implied towards Obama as the candidate

Hes boring...and his wife's bubblegum pink outfit is a turnoff...thus I changed the channel Tongue

Clinton Camp reports Clinton never had a strong chance in Wisconsin anyways and that they hope the gap will narrow as the night goes on.

I hope this won't come across as crass or impolitic, but his advance team didn't do a great job with the people-backdrop, in terms of demographics.

Having worked on this in the past, most Dem campaigns have specific mandates.  Repubs not so much, because there's less to work with. Tongue

Haha true, but that makes up with the over 20,000+ that are there right now listening to him speak. Tongue

If people are whining about what policies Obama stands for and wants to hear what he plans to do...you better turn on the television right now.

Quite frankly, the more I listen to Obama, the more bored I become.  But then again, I get annoyed by sermons in church that last longer than 15 minutes as well, so maybe I'm not the best analyst.

I do think this speech is lasting too long. He was doing better earlier on, but it is running on and on.

You guys wouldnt be able to go to a political event or a speech then, cause its like this for about an hour or so. One long speech by the candidate or politician.

Oh my God, my State Senator is on the TV.

I love Kirk Watson.

Hes getting bitched out by this very obnoxious black lady that I have no clue who she is...though hes not doing so hot either.

I think caucuses are either closed now or they will be closing in the next 30 minutes.
