Yup, if you look at turnout in these primaries as consisting of Democrats. In Virginia, for example, there's no party registration. Gazillions of Republicans are crossing over to make sure Obama beats the Hildabeast.

Notice that Virginia is giving Obama a bigger victory margin than next door Maryland.

Remember, one thing a vast overwhelming majority of Americans are tired of and it's the Clintons and their BS.

Barone seemed to hint that Huckabee may do well is areas not reported in yet.

The liberal area of VA that is going for McCain are not voting strong for McCann

The Wilder effect in spades. This is the crowd Jim Webb got out to vote. They’re his people.

I’m in a pretty lose-lose situation here. If Hillary or Obama beat McCain, I can hope that the House and Senate will stand up to them some. If McCain wins, he pushes most of the same agenda and the House and Senate feel obliged to go along as they did with some of President Bush’s big mistakes. Aside from that, if McCain wins, my choice of candidates continues to move Left from here on out. There were warnings that if a pro-life candidate is not nominated for the Republicans, a third party will be formed. McCain does not fit that bill, so I suppose I’ll vote FOR their candidate.

The Potomac shore, parts of the Rapp shore and Dahlgren may count as Washington ex-urbs. They’re full of “come-heres”. Once you’re off the water and away from the million dollar homes, it’s soybeans, corn and wheat.

“Rove drew a line around Northern Neck and called it a Washington ex-urb, saying it went heavily for McCain. But the area between the Potomac and Rappahannock is good ole farm country and likely went big for Huckabee.”

Guess Rove isn’t as smart as some people thought.

Plus, with him, it’s wishful thinking. Rove is a McCainiac.

Great minds think alike — I couldn’t have said it better! In November Obama will win and drag in a Reichstag and do to the USA what Hitler did to Germany. Yes, we are SCREWED!

Cohibas!

Virginia's Latino voting bloc consists primarily of Republican Cubans. Most the other Latinos in this area are non-citizens!
