Obama Stomps Through Virginia (Exit Poll Shows 2:1 Margin)

The Commonwealth favors Obama over Clinton 66-33, according to the exit poll Fox News is citing.  At the CNN Election Center, they're showing a margin of 61-39 in the exit polling.

Either way, that's a spicy meatball for Team Hillary.  Only one recent poll had shown Obama ahead by more than 20 points.

On the Republican side, the race is too still close to call.  The exit polling gives Huckabee an edge of a fraction of a point, 45-44 over McCain.

Update: Via Allah, a peek snuck at the other exit polls suggests Obama is stomping through the rest of the Chesapeake tonight too.

Update: What's all this then?

The head of elections in Maryland says a judge has extended voting statewide for 90 minutes until 9:30 p.m. because of traffic problems caused by bad weather.

Update: McCain wins Virginia and all 60 delegates.

Update: Hillary slunk on out of the mid-Atlantic and just popped up in El Paso, where she's busily placing each remaining egg in the Texas basket.

Update: McCain and Obama both win Maryland too.

And the Virginia margins keep growing - Obama by 27 and rising, McCain by 8 and rising.

Update: Zowie!  With about half of precincts reporting, Obama leads by 52 points and McCain leads by 50 points in DC.

Update: Meanwhile, Obama has landed in Madison, Wisconsin, where he's actually fleshing out his rhetoric a bit.  His policy in a nutshell: fanatically pro-"worker" and anti-"Wall Street".
