You have no idea.  Since 7:30 this morning, my polling place has been packed.  This is bad news for Clinton, and great news for Obama.

To be honest, I wouldn't mind either one.  I voted for Obama last Tuesday, but I'd be happy with either of them.  I also I wouldn't mind John McCain that much, though I'd prefer the Democratic nominee.

Close enough.  I've heard it interchangeably as the Beltway Primary and the Potomac Primary.

i think clinton can do reasonably well the woment (especially) in nova.

i dont know why you all automatically think that obama has nova wrapped up.

ive yet to hear anyone articulate a sound theory on why she will get blown out of the water in fairfax county.  i think she could possibly keep in reasonably close.  maybe not.  but im not automatically ceding it to obama by 30 points.

CNN: "We don't plan on counting the delegates from Colorado and Washington; we can't show Obama in the lead!"

They're not near the Potomoc either.

So my prediction of a Hillary upset is definitley going to be wrong since she's already in Texas. I just wonder how bad the margin will be.

I don't think Obama's in the area either this evening (Wisconsin).  Will be happy to be corrected, if wrong.
