After a close race, John McCain claimed the top spot in Washington, his only victory of the day.

I caucused for Hillary today. I really am on the fence and thought by going the Hil route that I could get the Obama folks to tell me why I should pick one or the other. I figured if I went straight for him I wouldn't learn anything new as I was sure that my precinct was mostly Obama. We had some really good discussions and both sides made great cases. I learned a lot about the system, the candidates, and ultimately what really mattered to me. I was shocked to get so emotional about some issues in front of folks I don't know. It was a great experience. The place was PACKED to the gills. It took almost an hour before everyone was even signed in!
