Anyone Else But Me Nervous -- Like, In A Good Way?
As much as I predicted an Obama blowout - and I, as an Obama supporter would love to see that.

But there's nothing like a close horserace to get the blood pumping.

Good luck Clinton and Edwards supporters. May the best candidate win.

1. Me, too ...
I really hope John Edwards gets enough votes to feel satisfied and to keep him in this race for real ... but I'm also hoping Obama wins this decisively over HRC.

4. Its looking good. A close race is really good news about the electorate.
The simple fact is that if they all switched to Obama really fast, they're being REALLY fickle and unstable and that's a generally bad sign for the GE. If the electorate is making thoughtful decisions, changes move more slowly, which we are seeing. Hillary Clinton not getting clobbered is a good sign for the GE, because people are being stable and thinking, which means they are less likely to get fooled by whatever dirty tricks get pulled before the GE.

6. I hope we get a result that keeps the contest going.
I want other states to have a real voice, and think it all through, no matter what the eventual outcome is.

8. I'm resigned
In a bad way.

I just can't understand a state like New Hampshire, with its history of unions and mills, not turning out in droves for John Edwards. I mean, gosh, have you ever seen Amoskeag? New Hampshire has seen some hard times.

12. I feel sick and sweaty.
I don't like it this close.

If it can't be Edwards, come on, Obama!
