Romney wins Nevada.

No big shock here. The Republican caucus was at 9 in the morning on a Saturday. Yeah, that's going to be interesting....not. Interestingly, or not so interestingly, he got 95% of the Mormon vote. Damn. However, Ron Paul looks to finish a decent second here, carrying the non-religious, Catholics, and non-mainline Protestants. http://www.cnn.com/ELECTION/2008/primaries/results/epolls/#NVREP

Caucuses are a damn strange way to pick a president.

I'm also confused by caucuses as the method for selecting a president. I'm curious who the five percent of Mormon's who didn't support Romney went?

That's a good question. Since Mormons as a group lean libertarian they may have gone to Paul.
