I came, I saw, I caucused. It was... interesting? There were 138 people from my precinct which is... a lot when you consider that the size of my town is not exactly impressive, and we are one of two precincts, and it looked like there were easily as many people from the other precinct there. Obama's camp had 48 and we were beat by Hillary's people, who then promptly CHEERED.

This is my annoyance with politics. It's treated like it's a football match instead of government. Maybe I want to be just a little TOO serious about it, but is it really too much to ask that it's treated with a little dignity? Apparently.

Whatever. See you at the polls in November, bitches.

Forget November, you get to laugh tonight.

MSNBC just called the caucus for Senator Obama.

YAY.

Everyone's calling it for Obama now.

Obama won in my precinct. :)

Yeah but Obama won - that'll show them! :D

And yay! And I wrote an ode to Iowa caucus goers on another site because I really do appreciate the effort Iowa voters make to educate themselves about the candidates and admire how seriously you take your first in the nation status.
