If they were writing an SAT test today, that might be a correct response. Right now most people are expecting Hillary Clinton to carry the day in the Nevada Caucuses, but there are a lot of unknowns floating out there that may make the polls wrong once again. First, caucus type primary elections are very difficult to forecast. Second, this is the first time many Nevadans will be voting in a caucus and thus it is exceedingly hard to find the people who will actually be voting tonight. Third, Clinton’s allies lost their attempt to ban caucus sites near the casinos where many expected Obama voters will be working. (In case you didn’t hear about it the Culinary Workers’ Union endorsed Obama and since many of them will be at work on Saturday night, they’ll need a caucus site near work in order to participate.) The fourth and final reason I think Nevada will prove fascinating is that Edwards may do far worse than people think and those votes (just a guess here) may break in favor of Obama by the end of the night. In any case this should be an interesting night for the Democrats.
Oh and if Obama wins here, Clinton will need to do very well in the upcoming super-duper Tuesday, since Obama will almost certainly win South Carolina.
