The Cauci don't begin until 1pm pacific time, but it's never too early to start a live thread.

I saw some younger supporters that were nerdy but there was one in front of me he was almost angry about Ron Paul, he was a real dedicated supporter.
Opening my fifth Thunderhead......
Nah, I missed the RuPaul airplane.
Let's all have the decency to leave the poor man's private life out of things, shall we...? ;)
I wish I was serious. I guess it was just one district.
I want McCain to get ZERO delegates!
Is it winner take all?
They're late. ;-)
ah ... u troublemaker :>) ... i just think it is funny ... McCain deserves this pressure.
My understanding is that this Washington caucus awards half of the state’s delegates as winner takes all. Then on the 19th ballot election, the other delegates are awarded winner takes all. Someone correct me please if I am wrong.
CNN, Fox, etc hasn’t updated the GOP results in 42 minutes- what’s up with that?
Let's all have the decency to leave the poor man's private life out of things, shall we...? ;)
LOL
Now, CNN is earth googling and groping the map.
What a night.
No.
Shocking that Huckabee is that close to McCain in a state like Washington.
McCain and Hillary seem like the weakest frontrunners ever.
Hillary may end up losing to Barack. Then, I know the end times are here. :>)
da fix iz in! :>0
Today was my first caucus and also first as a PCO. Luckily, the precinct had only 9 show up, but six wanted to be delegates, which was the allocated number for my precinct.
Visiting Ron Paul forums, I wasastonished at how delusional they are today. They are actually crying that Republicans haven’t reported so they could change the votes to McCain. They base this off of a district in Spokane reporting that Paul has 45% of the votes, ahead of Huckleberry and McPain. Like I said, delusional.
At my caucus, several precincts caucused together and Paul’s supporters showed up en masse, but only succeeded in getting him a second place finish in the straw poll behind Huckabee. McCain was third, with Romney and Hunter grabbing a few votes as well. One didn’t like the question of “winning the war on terror.” He thought it should be “ending the war in Iraq.” Too bad, so sad, it wasn’t changed and several let him know that “winning the war in Iraq is ending it.”
In all, a good experience, especially for my first time.
Kent, the GOP results have been stuck at like 19% reporting for almost an hour. Sorry to sound flaky, but does that strike you as weird?
Is that a beer/drink or feeling of your head next day? Never heard of it.
Don’t mess with me. Please don’t get me started!
Wow, nice report. An actual discussion of the candidates and the issues??!??. NOT AT ALL what I experienced at my caucus..........
