The numbers shown so far dont mean too much, but the crazy high turnout does. Polls were close, but Obama rallied around 10 points in the last 2 weeks to make them that way. High turnout favors the candidate with the momentum. Plus the caucus portion is pretty much guaranteed to go to him, and that represents 1/3 of the delegates.
