Instant Analysis of Today's GOP and Democratic Results: Bad Night for Frontrunners: Obama Sweeps the Evening -- Adding to Momentum; Huckabee Upsets McCain
As expected, Barack Obama is headed to big caucus victories in Nebraska and Washington and a primary win in Louisiana -- continuing his momentum and further reducing the narrow delegate lead of Hillary Clinton. On Tuesday, there's a chance he will go into the delegate lead for the first time -- which would be hugely significant, at least psychologically.
Meanwhile, for the GOP, Mike Huckabee has upset John McCain in Kansas (though we did note below it was quite possible) -- and looks like he could win Louisiana and even Washington. It shows that Huckabee -- a candidate with real grassroots support -- has the potential to cause McCain a lot of headaches, even if he's still the longest of long shots.
