Caucus Day Open Thread

Today is going to be a fight, that's for sure. 

What do you think?

UPDATE: The Republican caucus is headed for disaster.

Republicans will be lucky if they can figure out where to caucus tomorrow. First, as reported in the Reno Gazette-Journal, thousands of Republicans received postcards from the state party with incorrect caucus locations. Then, the state party's web site directed people to he wrong location until it was fixed Wednesday night.

Next, it looks like the party is unclear on its rules, changing its mind a couple times on whether Republicans not on their list tomorrow can sign an affidavit attesting they are appropriately registered with the party.

Half of Carson City's Republicans just had their caucus location moved.  I'm going to go out on a limb and say that, with all the problems they're having, and with the lack of enthusiasm for the Republican field and the lack of Republican candidates contesting the caucus, they're going to have an embarrassingly low turnout. 

UPDATE II:  John Edwards has already left Nevada.  He got on a plane for Oklahoma yesterday, probably his strongest February 5th state.  But I'll guess if he's already left that they're not expecting much to celebrate today.

UPDATE III:  Weather forecast for Nevada today: Sunny, relatively warm, high of 48 degrees.
