Primary Saturday

Kansas GOP caucused earlier today and Huckabee beat McCain 60% to 24% in a route. Washington and Nebraska also caucus and Louisiana has its primary today and I am more interested in what happens on the Dem side. Pajamas Media has a good round up and Gateway pundit has an interesting take on the Kansas caucus.
Update: Politico has its ticker going for results and shows Obama with a substantial lead over Hillary in Nebraska and Washington at a better than a 2-1 margin, like 70-30 amid big turnout.
My theory as to why the Dems are getting such huge turnout has to do with not wanting Clinton and the Republicans aren't as worried about who the nominee is knowing they will vote GOP in November regardless so they don't go to the primaries unless there are other measures on the ballot of interest.

Good summary! Isn't it getting interesting on the Dems end? Concerning is the momentum building the back of Obama ... Republicans, (notice I shyed away from writing 'conservatives'), had better get behind their man, else the consequences...
