1. Yes and he's leading in all the numbers I see. Its a plot to push Obama
and Hillary as that's what the media want.

5. Entrance polling is proving to be bullshit.
I guess that's why they are using it.

3. n/s
At 8:27 - CNN reported that only 2% of precincts had reported - but that Edwards was leading by 2%.

6. I think they're shitting their pants.
I don't think they ever imagined he even had a shot since they've devoted so much time to down-playing him.

21. That's why I don't waste my time with politics on tv!
Although I usually really like Olbermann.

Again, no need for TV with a live web stream and chat with regular updates and interesting discussions and debates:
