morse key, straight key
Demos have a good results site. A close-to-even three way tie with Hillary seemingly stuck in 3rd place with just over 50% of results in. My instinct is this is bad for Hillary (although she has the resources to take it on the chin), superb for Obama if he can hold that narrow lead and difficult for Edwards, who needed to win here, but he isn't out yet. Both Obama and Edwards now face formidable problems in tackling Hillary's massive lead in many late January and Super Tuesday states.

Republicans: looks like Huckabee has survived fairly vicious attacks from mainstream Republicanism to eke out a clear win over a fractured field. Hard to tell what will happen next on the mainstream side, but Tommy Thompson is clearly toast leaving Huckabee as the standard bearer of the Christian right. If no clear winner emerges, Ron Paul's 11% repeated elsewhere might see him become a kingmaker come convention time. In the unlikely event it gets that far...

May go to bed now, it's late here.
