Super Fat Tuesday updates
I’ll be updating this thread with primary results and other information as it comes in over my teletype.
- First results of the day: West Virginia goes to … Mike Huckabee? That’s 18 delegates for the Huckster. UPDATE: Reason is reporting that the Huckabee and Paul camps cut a deal to keep Romney from winning the state.
- Rush Limbaugh weighs in (and he has a lot to throw around) against McCain.
- What’s left of the Grateful Dead endorse Obama, giving him an edge in the critical “50 year-old burnouts who will probably forget to vote” demographic. The Dead also gave Obama some campaign trail advice, saying he’d better “watch his speed” and “sometimes the cards ain’t worth a dime if you don’t you lay ’em down.”
- Political markets show Clinton and Obama in a statistical dead heat.
- From Politico.com: Clinton is the projected winner in Arkansas, Oklahoma and Tennessee. Obama takes Georgia and Illinois. Romney wins Massachusetts and … nothing else so far. Huckabee projected winner in three states. McCain currently leading the Republicans with four. I’m going to the bar. Full write up tomorrow.
