Wow
This is fascinating, and brings home the way in which the MSM has totally spiked the big story in the primary results this year.
Here are selected results from the primary tallies for Orange County, CA:
McCain: 117, 333
Romney: 109,877
Huckabee: 32,078
Paul: 13,354
Clinton: 141,688
Obama: 96,967
In case you have not flown into John Wayne Airport (no, seriously, John Wayne Airport), let me assure you that the home of B-1 Bob Dornan, Dana Rohrabacher, and John Schmitz is face-meltingly conservative.
For comparison, here were the O.C. results in 2004:
Kerry: 419,239
Bush: 641,832
In 2004, the O.C. went Republican by a more than 3-2 margin. In this primary, all Republicans outdrew all Democrats by less than 10%. And the top vote-getter was a Democrat.
The results in San Diego County (also conservative, and home to Camp Pendleton and several naval bases) are even better for the Dems.
This bodes awfully well for November.

Right. Unless Clinton wins the nomination. (See previous post)
I found a couple of maps that show that Clinton did great in Bush country.
If Obama is the nominee, it seems possible that Rohrabacher could lose his seat to even an unknown Democrat if there's one on the ballot. Now that would be some Change. All it takes is for more dems than repubs to show up.
If Clinton's the nominee, no chance for a realignment. No. Chance.
Fresh ground pepper?
