Obama has taken several states so far: UT, ND, KS, and AL. However, his biggest prize (so far) is CT. That is a sweet victory for him, squeezed into that Hillary block up in the Northeast.
It is obvious that neither campaign is going to knock the other one out. Still, the biggest prize is waiting out west. California closes in 33 minutes.
On the GOP side, Huckabee is having a good night. He is going to take AR, AL, and WV, and is in good shape in TN, MO, and GA. McCain has a bunch of delegates, but he can't be happy.
More as it happens.

Clusterf%@k Tuesday: 2 Hours to CA
Hillary Clinton wins NY and MA, Obama takes DE. Not any surprises again, although Obama would have liked to be more competitive in MA.
Still a bunch of states that are too close to call. It could be a long night.

Clusterf%@k Tuesday: No surprises yet
Damn you Mr. Olbermann, scaring the crap out of me by calling TN "too close to call" initially, before giving it to Clinton.
No surprises so far, with Obama adding IL to his column, and Clinton taking OK and AR in addition to TN. CT, DE, MA, and NJ are still too close to call, a good sign for Obama.
On the GOP side, McCain has captured NJ, DE, and CT, with Romney taking MA and Huckabee taking AR. Again, no surprises.
Still over two hours to CA closing.

Clusterf%@k Tuesday: Obama takes Georgia
CNN and MSNBC have called Georgia for Barack Obama. This wasn't a huge surprise, and margin of victory is more important than who won it. It won't be until 8:00 EST that we see how things really will start skewing.
Republicans are still too close to call.
More to come.

Clusterf%@k Tuesday: Huckabee Draws First Blood
The results of the WV GOP convention are in, and former Governor Mike Huckabee is the winner. After a first vote that saw Mitt Romney win, but not win enough to carry the majority, the McCain supporters jumped to give Huckabee the win. This is a blow for Romney, who needs all the delegates he can get just to stay alive.
Less than 3 hours until the polls close in Georgia!

It's Here: Super Duper Tuesday
Yep, boys and girls, it's here. The day we've all been waiting for: Super Duper Tuesday. Voters in 24 states, plus American Samoa and the Democrats Abroad, are heading to either primaries or caucuses. Whether you support a Republican or Democrat, Hillary or Obama, please go and let your voice be heard.
Unless there is an absolute surprise, it appears that John McCain will virtually wrap up the GOP nomination today. Conversely, the Democrats will probably settle nothing today, and might not get the battle between Obama and Hillary settled until Denver.
I'll probably be posting later on, as results start to trickle in. If I don't, well don't be sad. I'm sure there will be plenty of coverage to slake your thirst.
