While this Casino Caucus video can’t compete with Wonkette’s Cloverfield Coverage, it does provide actual verification of our hysterical claims: Nobody in Nevada even knows what Caucus means, let alone how to hold one. [Why Tuesday?]

At nine casinos in fabulous Las Vegas today, the Democrats held these weird “at large” caucuses for the Culinary Workers Union, which happened to endorse Obama. And then there was a court case — not-so-secretly encouraged by the Clinton campaign — to stop these casino caucus spectaculars, because that might help Barry Hussein Obama. Well, in the end Hillary won even with the union people having the right to vote or whatever. Here’s what it looked like. MORE »

So, turns out you can take crappy videos with this crappy little PowerShot I carry around ….

Here’s an idea as innovative as the Nevada Caucus “First In The West” itself: Invite the press, lock them in a terrible underground ballroom in a casino somewhere, and make sure there’s no sort of Internet or wireless or anything. Hooray! Anyway, that’s where your editor has been, and here’s the chilling semi-live-blogged account of this weird, weird process. MORE »

Suck it, Barry! You only got like three percent less than Hillary! NOBODY LIKES BLACK PEOPLE.

Of course, you, the Wonkette reader with Internet Access, already know this, thanks to Newell’s post and, perhaps, teevee news. Lots more coming, including a stupid movie! [Las Vegas Sun]

* It’s super cold in South Carolina this morning, which suggests people won’t vote for McCain because he has a mulatto baby. [The State]
* Nevada is so very different than those other states that already had a caucus or primary. There are legal whorehouses everywhere, for one thing, and people are also really dumb and poor and fat. [Las Vegas Sun]
* Hey, Michelle Hussein Obama doesn’t know how to pronounce “Nevada,” either. [NY Daily News]
* Mike Huckabee is walking a fine line between being a Jesus Freak and being a Jesus Freak who can beat McCain. [NYT]
* All the sudden Hopeful Barry’s all being mean to Hillary, because apparently he is running a political campaign against her. [Washington Post]

Who loves Reno? Hardly anybody, that’s who. But the “Biggest Little City” and star of teevee’s Reno 911 is all excited about its role in the “First In The West” caucus tomorrow, as you can see from the Reno Gazette Journal’s lead story right now. [Reno Gazette-Journal]

What better way for a champion to end his career in the ring than by, uh, permanently disfiguring his own body with a giant Ron Paul tattoo? That was the grand scheme hatched by the Paultards, who came up with this great idea to forever scar middleweight/heavyweight legend Roy Jones Jr. with Paul’s name in time for the big fight with Felix Trinidad on Saturday. But Jones just killed the $50,000 offer, the Las Vegas Sun reports, because it was just so fucking stupid. [Las Vegas Sun]

Horrible smog. Chewed-up desert. Wind storms. Endless vistas of foreclosed stucco boxes. For Sale signs and Payday Loan joints. Crushing unemployment. No water. Rampant crime, prostitution, drug addiction, gambling addiction — all squirming around the edges of a never-finished vulgar theme park that should be blown up and reassembled in Dubai, where it belongs.

Here’s the best campaign sign ever made by anyone, for anyone. It’s in downtown Las Vegas, by the jail. See, everything’s not always about Hillary and Barry and what’s his name, “Ol’ Mill Liver.” MORE »

During my sad tour of the endless half-abandoned Vegas “single family home developments,” I saw exactly ZERO political signs until this half-hearted falling-over Mitt Romney “lawn” sign. (It’s kind of stuck in some half-dead ground-cover plant surrounded by gravel. Las Vegas is about 42% stucco and 56% gravel. The rest of the city consists of cigarette butts and dried-up condoms.)
