Something interesting in the SUSA WA poll
Crosstabs found here.

Obama is shown as leading 53-40, leading the under 50 crowd by a large margin, and trailing among those over 50 (due to the 65+ group). But what I found more interesting were the the answers to questions 3 and 4. Washington holds both a caucus and a primary, but only the caucus on Feb 9 counts, the Feb 19 primary will not decide any delegates. Far more will vote in the meaningless primary (88%) than in the meaningful caucus (26%). And looking at the crosstabs, its the younger voters that will be turning out to the caucus, only 17% of 65+ versus 28% of the 18-34 group.
