recent up date on TX caucuses: Obama 56% Clinton 44% - 22% reporting
I imagine there will be some spin that the caucus result is somehow less "democratic" than the popular vote result.

halfway down the page: http://www.cnn.com/ELECTION/2008/primaries/results/state/#TX

1. Interesting, isn't it?
If the discrepancy between the votes and the caucuses continues to be so large, does it mean that the freepers who heeded Limpballs' call for reTHUGs to vote for Hillary voted, but were just too damned lazy to go caucus as well... and the caucuses show where the REAL Dem vote is?

Just askin'....

In the meantime, I have to go to sleep.

Catch up with you guys in the a.m.

GObama!

3. Actually looking at the exit polls before making ignorant posts is apparently too hard for some *NT*

4. It's not spin, it is true. But both sides are playing by the same rules
So if Obama wins it he wins it.
