2008 Primaries Thread

fuck drudge, he called it for kerry in 04 (or was that wonkette)

anyway I'll believe it when I see it

OBAMA LARGE is a pretty funny headline tho

Where's the best live video cvge?

that's a complex question

IF MITT ROMNEY DOESN'T WIN SOME BIG STATES TONIGHT I AM GOING TO JUMP OFF A BUILDING IN THE NEXT M. NIGHT SHYAMALAN FILM.

BBC and ABC both working nicely.

cnn calling illinois for obama, oklahoma for hillz

Where's the best live video cvge?

Sean, aren't you on a continent that covers this shit on the real tv?

ABC call CT and IL for McCain

if only i had a telly, O Gooblar!

re Waterboarding, I actually didn't know the US hadn't already admitted to it.

haha sorry am instinctively jealous of north american types!

obama got 41% of the white vote in Georgia.

abc radio has been going apeshit about mccain and the betrayal of conservative principles

he is not doing well in whites over 30, and much worse over 45 pretty much everywhere.

white Democratic or overall???

G00blar -> http://abcnews.go.com/Politics/SuperTuesday/page?id=4218669

from the exits so white democratic.

Curtis --

Results will be coming in until late tonight, but we did just learn one piece of great news.

Thanks to you, we're projected to win Georgia.

I'll be in touch again later tonight when we have results from more states.

lol crut1s

Curtis--

Nice going. Thanks to you we're projected to lose Georgia by exactly one vote. Way to get motivated.

Barack

Curtis--

I'll upload that T.I. album to sendspace. It's fire.

Barack

Cheers ed, but I think I'm going to bed. Gotta teach in the morning, and don't really want to stay up all hours of the night to see the "news"--it may not even be clear by morning!

xposts lol

Curtis --

WTF? I told you to vote twice for me. Did you? No. Now I'm going to lose. Nice going.

Barack.

arkansas going to hillz and huckabee

She's racking up some wins early. Why is this night going so well for Obama?

I guess it's too early.

Clinton & Huck winning Ark. = mad shocking

xpost
Well because there's not yet been any significant Dem result (ie, any states where the outcome wasn't v clear from advance polls). And yet Obama more than exceeded poll expectations in Georgia.

Yeah, that's fair.

Tennessee to Clinton

:/

MSNBC calling Alabama for Huckabee.

Just to demonstrate how unsurprising things have been so far:

just got home, was a madhouse! awes~~

voted 4 prez and then bailed, sorry mn-dfl, didn't feel like deliberating anything tonight... tho i am confused as this caucus is apparently NOT going to decide our senate candidate (btw mike ciresi and al franken)

maybe i walked out the wrong door but i saw no exit poll people, i guess it's sort of moot since the caucuses only go for an hour and a half here. they start counting at 8pm here, and extended hours might be a possibility, big big crowds!

(btw mike ciresi and al franken)

You support both? I don't think you get to do that.

ABC calling MA for Clinton.

NY, too.

Huckabee's doing remarkably well.

I think gff is saying that Cerisi and Franken are the two Senate choices in MN for the DFL

Huck in Alabama

I love Charles Gibson.

ABC calling Delaware for Obama.

I only did the Presidential preference in MN as well; INSANE mob of people. We had to wait in line to get into the building at all. (Granted, Northfield is a very liberal town, but 2004 was crazy... this was way way crazier than then.)
