1. DC was weeks ago, before Iowa
but the vote didn't "count" because D.C. is a colony not a state with full-fledged citizens.

By the way, D.C. went for Dean.

3. Yes but yesterday they met to pick their candidate and a little
Kerry dirty trick showed up. They decided that no one had a plurality so they left uncommitted. The a few returned and used an old rule to designate Kerry the winner. Dirt bags.

4. I remember when Jerry Brown won Nevada.
That was something of a surprise because no one had been paying any attention to Nevada. Brown of course was well known in Nevada having been governor of neighboring California. This time I assume Kerry will run away with Nevada. Have Dean, Edwards or Kucinich been there?
