After looking at the counties, it looks like McCain will actually win LA
Most likely WA as well.

The big cities are the ones that have only come in at 10 percent and they are heavily McCain so far.

Would've been fun if Huck had swept, but I don't think it's going to happen.

This is similar to Super Tuesday when Huck was leading in Missouri most of the way, but then St. Louis came in at the end and McCain ended up winning.

2. He'll probably win LA in the general election; but what about Washington?
I always think of Washington as a pretty liberal state, but am constantly surprised by how successful it's Republican candidates are.

5. 81% reporting Huck up by 5%, McCain needs something like 65%
of the remaining vote.

6. 80 percent of E. Baton Rouge hasn't reported
That's a big parish that is breaking huge for McCain (in the 20 percent that's in)

We shall see!

8. Caddo (Huck country) will offset Orleans (not many repukes)
It will come down to East Baton Rouge. Depends whether the fundy precints in East Baton Rouge have been counted yet--I suspect not

11. Interesting - here's hoping McCain doesn't catch up
Although I think WA has more delegates than LA and KS combined.

17. Huck up 3%, 89% reporting no movement from last time
McCain needs to gain 2500 votes, with about 13,000 outstanding, very possible.

18. Republican voters are giving the establishment the finger.
They are going over to Hukkkabee.

This is what happens when you train your base to be as base as possible.

20. I think it may end up with all the delegates being uncommitted
Since neither is going to reach 50 percent.
