Revised Super Tuesday Ratings
Today I have Revised Super Tuesday Ratings. Obama is Blue,Clinton is Red (light Leans, Dark is Safe) green is tossup. Today a poll was released showing The two virtually tied in California. Clinton was up 43-40 With a Keith number (MOE + Undecided) of 21. In Mass. (Clinton 43-37) and New Jersey (Clinton 43-39) Hillary's lead has dropped stunningly as it has all over the country. She has dropped Aprox. 10-15 Points since 1/26. Obama is now up in one poll. In Georgia his lead has strengthened (Obama 52-36) and has seen a minor drop in New Mexico. Overall the race will not be decided by Tuesday.

John McCain : Projected Victor of the Republican Nomination
Projection on the Repubican nomination as 2 Major Candidates Drop Out
6 Days Till Super Tuesday.
Florida was last night and here were the results:
McCain 36%
Romney 31%
Guliani 15%
Huckabee 13%
Paul 3%
With These Results I can now Project that John McCain Has won The Republican nomination
John McCain: Projected Victor of the Republican Nomination
And Because of this projection I will not rate super Tuesday For The Republicans:
The Delegate Count is:
X-John McCain 95
Mitt Romney 67
Huckabee 26
Paul 4
Yet To Be Decided 10
The Other Big Stories are the 2 Drop outs. Both Rudy Guliani and John Edwards have Droped out of the Race. Guliani Has Endorsed (the new nominee apparently) John McCain. Edwards has yet to throw his support (and his 26 Delgates) to his Candidate ( Most Likely Obama). Edwards Supporters according to exit polls will break 60-40 for Obama. This could mean a big jump. Also Electability may come in to play (now that McCain is The Nominee) witch also favors Obama.
Here is my Map for the Democrats. Dark Red represents Safe Clinton, light Red for lean Clinton, Dark Blue for Safe Obama Light Blue for lean Obama, Purple for Tossups:

Florid Final Call and Democrats Super Tuesday
Mitt Romney has a bit of momentum going into Florida despite Charlie Christ's endorsement of McCain. Who ever wins Florida will Likely go on to win the nomination, that is if (and a BIG if) there is a clear winner. Here are the polls:
McCain 29.8%
Romney 28.6%
Giuliani 15.2%
Huckabee 9.8%
Paul 4.2%
Here is my Final Call:
Romney 32%
McCain 30%
Guliani 16%
Huckabee 15%
Paul 7%
For the Democrats Obama today added to his momentum with the endorsement of the Kennedy Family. He has also demonstrated his power his momentum in states like Colorado (Obama up by 2(a couple days ago)-10(today)) Alabama (Obama by 1-7) California (Clinton by 12-2) But also in states like New Jersey (Clinton 18-4 and all over the rest of the US (Clinton by 6- Obama by 3) I am Updating the ratings accordingly.

Obama Wins Big in South Carolina and takes the lead in national polls
2 Days till Florida. Yesterday was the South Carolina Democratic Primary Here are the Results:
Obama 55%
Clinton 26%
Edwards 19%
Obama is going into super Tuesday with a 29%. Caroline Kennedy has endorsed Obama. We are looking at a Super Tuesday with just 6 positive leaders out of 22 states. Obama has a chance to lock the nomination if he wins states like Georgia, Alabama, Colorado, California, New Mexico, Kansas ect. Hillary is now in a position where she potentally must win 50%+1 of the delegates to win the nomination. This is due to the (now true) Edwards King-maker Strategy in witch he stays in the race to draw as many delegates as he can and then give them to the candidate of his choice. Obama has according to an AOL poll taken the lead in the national numbers (The real polling companies are a 2-3 Days behind). Here are the results of that poll as of now:
Obama 40%
Clinton 37%
Edwards 16%
Undecided 7%
I have added to the side Super Tuesday ratings for the democrats. I will add republican ratings after Florida. The numbers though are misleading. Obama should get a pretty large jump from this 29 point victory. He should in the next few days sucure some that are now leaning, make some tossups lean to him and move some states from the "Leaning (or Even safe) Clinton" Rating to the tossup rating.
I have new Polls for the Republicans from Florida:
Romney 27.6%
McCain 26.6%
Guliani 17.6%
Huckabee 15.2%
Paul 3.8%
What was once a four way tie has turned into the decider of a two man Race. The winner will likely be the noninee. Here are my rankings:

South Carolina and other news
South Carolina is tomorrow. since I wrote my last post there has been big news.
Thompson was the first major candidate to drop out. his votes will be split between Huckabee and Romney. this is about 11% of the electorate. It helps Romney in Florida where he is approximately tied . Here are my averages:
Romney 24.6%
McCain 24.4%
Guliani 18.2%
Huckabee 15.2%
Paul 4.4%

The Strangest day since I've ever seen in Politics
7 Days to South Carolina . Today has been the strangest day I've ever seen:
Lets start with the Republican Nevada Results:
Romney 51% (18 Delegates)
Paul 14% (4)
McCain 13% (4)
Huckabee 8% (2)
Thompson (2)
Guliani 4% (1)
Hunter 2% (0)
This race was predicted to be close by anyone who Analyzed it. Ron Paul was not going to be in second. Guliani was going to be 3ed or 4th not 6th. I'm Amazed at these results. This was a clear Victory for Romney. After Nevada the Delegate count was:
Romney 67
Huckabee 20
McCain 19
Thompson 8
Paul 6
Guliani 1
Hunter 1
After this insanity Duncan Hunter announced his withdrawal from the race. He is a third tier candidate. Typically they drop out much later. He had no shot at the nomination
As all of this was going on we got the democratic results:
Clinton 51% (12)
Obama 46% (13)
Edwards 4% (0)
First off Edwards was in there until today. he polled at 27% but only got 4% of the vote. Second Obama lost the popular by 6% witch was a bigger margin than us pendents anticipated. some of us (like me) were even calling on him to win. Third Even though Obama lost he won. that is not a typo Obama won 13 Delegates Clinton won 12. It is rare that that happens to the winner. In My Book Obama and Clinton both won. Edwards did not drop out after his third place showing. He may be waiting to Convention day to hand pick the democratic Nominee. Under this scenario the Nominee would Presumably be Obama, but you never know. If Edwards is planning this Clinton (presumably) would have to reach 50%+1 of the delegates to win the nomination witch is a lot harder in a 3 way race.
The Count stands :
Obama 38
Clinton 36
Edwards 18
The records are (w-l-t)
Obama 2-0-1
Clinton 1-1-1
Edwards 0-3-0
Here are my Rankings:
1a.Obama
1b.Clinton
---2ed Tier---
3.Edwards
Next came The Republican South Carolina. Right after polls closed Fred Thompson Gave a sounding like he was dropping out but ended it staying neutral. Then these results Came in:
McCain 33% (19)
Huckabee 30% (5)
Thompson 16%
Romney 15%
Paul 4%
Guliani 2%
McCain some how turned a losses in Michigan and Nevada (two states he had a lot riding on) into a win in South Carolina. Guliani Finished last Not just once but twice. Guliani Will have trouble winning big states after these Performances. I'm Expecting Thompson to Drop out soon.
Here is the Delegate count that stands

Nevada for the Democrats
Nevada is a three way tossup. Who ever wins has a good shot at the nomination: here is the poll:
Obama 32%
Clinton 30%
Edwards 27%
Hillary only won 55% of the Michigan vote. She was the only big candidate on the ballot and I was expecting her to land in the 60-67% range.
Last Night on the Colbert Report a Vegas odds maker gave these odds for Nevada
Obama 33%
Clinton 31%
Edwards 29%
Obama can stand a loss here but it would be risky ground. My money would be on Obama but that could all change quick. Edwards Must win to stay alive. If Hillary looses again she will need to pick up steam fast. Here are my Rankings:

my Final call was Dead on. my accuracy rate is back up to 98%.
McCain is back on the rocks, his only chance was to win here and he blew it. Huckabee still has a really good shot. Romney now has to win Nevada or South Carolina to stay in the lead.

New Nevada Poll
Obama is at least dangerously close to Clinton. He could be in the lead By a sizable margin, But the debate will change things.
Here is the new research 2000 poll
Obama 32%
Clinton 30%
Edwards 27%
In the last Research 2000 poll Clinton was ahead by 20 points. In the Mason- Dixon (pre-Iowa) poll Obama was only down by 8. With the projection of change in the Research 2000 poll Obama would Be ahead by 14 Points. If Obama wins in Nevada he has a huge shot at the nomination. Rankings:

Thompson 6
Paul 2
Hunter 1
Guliani 0
McCain was the big winner yesterday. there is one question left for him: Where does he go from here? McCain must win Michigan to stay in serious contention. same goes for Romney. Barring a virtual tie some one will be out by next Wednesday. both can pull off a win in South Carolina with a Michigan Victory. Guliani's campaign has been run in a manor that is monumentally stupid. Thompson has no currant shot. If Huckabee wins Michigan he will be the nominee. Rankings:

Richardson has dropped out. The nomination is looking like an Obama - Clinton Race. If Edwards drops out it secures the nomination for Obama. New Hampshire was not a Clinton win it was a stalemate. Obama only lost by 2 points , the 2 split the delegates evenly, Obama gave a better speech and most convincingly Obama wore down Hillary's money. Obama leads in the cash race 40 Mil to Clinton's 15 Mil. if Obama wins Nevada he wins the nomination, that's not the case for Clinton. Rankings:

McCain was the big winner yesterday. there is one question left for him: Where does he go from here? McCain must win Michigan to stay in serious contention. same goes for Romney. Barring a virtual tie some one will be out by next Wednesday. both can pull off a win in South Carolina with a Michigan Victory. Guliani's campaign has been run in a manor that is monumentally stupid. Thompson has no currant shot. If Huckabee wins Michigan he will be the nominee. Rankings:

Wyoming and New Hampshire thoughts
4 Days to New Hampshire, 1 to Wyoming. People are now beginning to say what I have known for 2 months. Obama is the front runner to win the democratic nomination. Hillary will probably loose in New Hampshire now that Obama has won Iowa. Unless Obama does something monumentally stupid between now and February 5th he will win the nomination. Here are my rankings:
1.Obama
---2ed Tier---
2.Clinton
3. Edwards
---3ed Tier---
4.Richardson
No one Knows what's going to happen tomorrow in Wyoming. Huckabee, Guliani, and Ron Paul haven't even been there yet. Here is my rough guess (Note: this is not a final call and not scientific at all I could be entirely wrong , there is no data coming from Wyoming.)
1. Huckabee 2. Thompson 3.Romney 4. Paul 5. McCain 6. Guliani. I have no clue what's going on. Here are My Standings:
1. Huckabee
2.Romney
3. McCain
---2ed Tier---
4. Guliani
5. Thompson
---3ed Tier---
6. Paul
I'll do Results and the senate tomorrow

Democratic Iowa Cacus results
the 2008 primary season has begun. Here are the results with 100% reporting:
X-Obama 38%
Edwards 30%
Clinton 29%
Richardson 2%
Biden 1%
Dodd 0%
Kucinich -
Gravel -
My predictions were flawless in the placing of the candidates.
The race just got a little lonelier. Joe Biden and Chris Dodd both have dropped out of the race. Who does this benefit? Obama. his polocy positions line up with these 2. Obama was the clear winner today. watching his speech I sensed a Robert Kennedy feel to him. speaking as a democrat that's what we want in a candidate. He has a huge advantage going into New Hampshire. He will be the leader by tomorrow morning He has all but sealed the nomination with his victory today. Expect Richardson to stick around to super Tuesday then drop out to run for the senate in New Mexico. Here are my new rankings excluding Kucinich and Gravel:
1. Barok Obama
---2ed Tier---
2. Hillary Clinton
3.John Edwards
---3ed Tier---
4. Bill Richardson

Republican Iowa Cacus Results
this is the day we've all been waiting for, Iowa Caucus night 2008. This Begins the primary season. this is the most important election we have ever seen. this is America. here are the results for the republicans:
X-Huckabee 34%
Romney 25%
Thompson 13%
McCain 13%
Paul 10%
Guliani 4%

93%-Reporting
These Results match exactly the placing on my Final Call. now 98% Accurate.
Expect Duncan Hunter to drop out within the next few days. Guliani is wounded. His campaign was put together very poorly. he did not emphasise the early states as he should have. Loosing to Ron Paul now confirms he has no shot at the nomination. McCain has revived him self for the 2ed time in 2 weeks. Huckabee chewed up Mitt Romney. If Romney wins New Hampshire this s a battle for the ages if not it's hard to see any one but Huckabee win, McCain could do it though here are my new Rankings:
1.Mike Huckabee
2. Mitt Romney
3.John Mccain
