Weather will play a part - Thursday & Night: mostly clear. 30H
If any of the obama and edwards people were hoping for bad weather to keep the senior citizens in the house on caucus night then tough. Weather will be mostly sunny and a lil' warmer. Should be a long night.....

1. Only Edwards would benefit from bad weather. Not Obama.
Good try.

9. Edwards is relying on the very rural vote,
so he would not benefit from really bad weather. People who live in the town where the caucus is held would be able to get to the polls regardless of age. But the farmers and their families would not. So good weather makes an even playing field.

7. My dog is better at predicting weather 5 days ahead than
the weather readers on TV.

3. Great, the students will likely come out and new comers
That's great news for Obama! The higher the turnout, the better it is for Obama. Besides, Obama is no slouch among the old people either. He can hold his own there.

4. That's right. The OP lumped Obama in with Edwards. Only Edwards hopes for bad weather
since his supporters are supposedly hardcore and would come out in any weather.
