I want a casino caucus!

Forget Iowa, I'm moving to Nevada. Not only do they get the fun and chaos of a caucus, they get to do it in a CASINO. This is truly democracy at its best. Where else in the world can you cast a vote for President and play a round of blackjack in the same place?

Update on the primary watch: Mitt Romney won Michigan yesterday. (So did Clinton, but it's not quite as remarkable, since she was the only one on the ballot.) So, for those of you keeping score, that's Huckabee, McCain, and Romney, each with one win on the Republican side, and Obama with one, and Clinton with... well, we'll call it one and a half wins on the Democratic side. Next up is Nevada (casinos!! seriously!!) and South Carolina.

I think it's actually really interesting that the field is so wide open on both sides. Everyone was concerned that moving the primary dates up would lock up a winner too quickly, but no one seems to be able to gain enough momentum, probably due to the broad differences in the states that have voted so far. Of course, to be fair, it's still only January, and even if we don't get a clear frontrunner until Super Tuesday (which I'm assuming is what we're now calling Feb. 5th), that's still a full month ahead of prior primary seasons. (Last election cycle, Super Tuesday was March 2nd, I believe.)
