1. Gosh, those are pretty significant diffs in turnout between primary and caucus...

...for eligible voters! Just shows you how ridiculously unrepresentative caucuses are - hope the Dems get rid of that next primary election cycle. The low turnout is just one of many disadvantages of that system.

2. 1% turnout rate in nebraska...

i just found it very dusturbing that many of the caucuses had turnout rates around 4%, 5%, in single digit numbers.....and primaries hovering in the high 20% to 50%.

3. I see that and the way things are going

In my opinion, I feel Obama is starting to isolate Hillary supporters and as such I'm not sure if he can defeat McCain in the GE if he is the nominee. Just my opinion.
