I'm wondering if Jersey's also a case of lacking the city votes.

CNN.com is too big for my Netscape browser and 1999 Dell.

California is obviously the biggest prize out there, and while Clinton had a solid lead before, recent polls suggested that Obama was closing in.

Missouri is also a very interesting state, as it is close to Arkansas where Clinton spent many years.

Arizona and New Mexico will be worth watching, too.

I don't think it will matter there. Clinton is going to win NJ.

Huck is helping foil Mitt, thereby helping McCain (who could wrap it up tonight), and the dems are going to be going long into the evening.

Neither do I, but I was just suggesting why they haven't called it yet.

phanan · 02-05-2008, 09:12 PM

Right, I agree about that.

anitram · 02-05-2008, 09:13 PM

Massachusetts is surprising and strange given the results next door in CT.

Canadiens1131 · 02-05-2008, 09:13 PM

This is better than the west wing

Boston hasn't had anything come in yet, though, so I think that's why they are holding off there.

The Boston Globe has a town by town breakdown and in most places, Clinton in thumping Obama. I'm really surprised that the margin is so wide.

Huckabee would be too alienating, wouldn't he?

If anyone would pull the Republican "base*" back in, the base that McCain is apparently not conservative enough for, I think it would be Huck Huck.

*Rural religious folks who don't know better.

phillyfan26 · 02-05-2008, 09:24 PM

Sure, some people might think it "evens it out" but then wouldn't you have people who lean towards McCain saying Huckabee's too nuts to be in public office?

phanan · 02-05-2008, 09:24 PM

Huckabee will never be on the ticket.

Lila64 · 02-05-2008, 09:25 PM

well if McCain gets the nomination, perhaps he picks someone more conservative to make the part of the party he is alienating happy

phillyfan26 · 02-05-2008, 09:27 PM

I think he will, but Huckabee's impossible to vote for to the majority of Americans.

When people ask themselves, "Do I want him to be next in line if something happens to McCain?" I think McCain would be toast.

Exactly. Huckabee would cause McCain to lose all the independents that would otherwise give him a good chance at victory.

For those who have voted...

Did the polling places require you to show ID? I don't think they ever have done so here... Just curious...
