36. a caller on randi rhodes today said that obama doesn't
really talk about hawaii, it's not in his bio, etc, and that he (the caller) feels like hawaii has been ignored by obama.

??

i don't know--we'll see.

7. Give it a rest?
Why can't those from Hawaii - or anywhere discuss the caucus taking place there? Does Hawaii's voters not count either now?

11. I'll guess 90-10
i dont have a good grasp on the local politics of the state, but i've always been very impressed by the tight knit hawaiian culture. i'm predicting obama in a huge landslide.

but i ahven't seen a single poll for hawaii, so who knows.

28. I think they had better fly me over right now for a 4 to 6 week recount
If anyone wants to throw in meals at Mama's Fish House, that would work for me, too.

33. No way are the polls closing anytime soon
My caucus site in Palolo, 1st Congressional district, district 20 ran out of ballots. There were more than 1200 people there.

And when I left, I thought my site was bad - Manoa was even WORSE. Read this article.

http://www.honoluluadvertiser.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=/20080219/BREAKING01/80219082

A lot of places in Hawaii ran out of ballots. Some people ended up voting on blank sheets of paper.

I say no way does the voting finish at 7:30 PM HST. Maybe around 9:00 PM.

I also think it will be closer than what some people are thinking. I know a lot of people who are also voting for Hillary.
