2008 An Iowa Caucus Night Party in Seattle

Commenter Travis asks:
Anybody have any good tips on where to watch the Iowa action unfold tonight?
Here’s one, if you’re into Barack Obama:
Seattle, WA- Grassroots supporters of presidential candidate Barack Obama (D-IL) announced today that they will be holding an “Iowa Caucus Watch Party” on Thursday, January 3 at 7:00 pm at the grassroots supporters headquarters located on the 3rd floor of the Howard Building in Pioneer Square, at 614 First Avenue in downtown Seattle.“We are calling on all Obama supporters in the Western Washington area to come out and join the people in Iowa as they stand for change on this historic day” said Dean Andro, Senator Obama’s high school classmate and one of the event hosts.
And for those of you who prefer a virtual political experience to an actual political experience: My intern, Ryan Jackson, will be down there with them, hopefully sharing some images of the party with the Sloggy masses.
John Edwards supporters will be at the Spitfire Grill on 4th Ave.
Wow, I don't think I can really support a candidate if his supporters can't even have a caucus watching party at a bar. (Not that I would show up anyway, but have some decency. Sheesh.)
How about at that Iowa institution, the Kum & Go...

Edwards party at Spitfire starts at 5, when the caucuses start. There should be entrance polls published not long after.
Where is the HIllary one? Is there one? I know I am one of the few people in Washington not wanting to blow Obama.
Any neutral spots to watch cable coverage over beers?
@6: this is exactly what I want, too.
I think I'll go "crash" the Edwards thing, since it's at a bar, but I'd rather it be a neutral spot. Meh?
Original Monique, I have been led to believe that there is no designated Clintonista caucus-watch site in our neck of the woods.
Perhaps they couldn't locate a small-enough venue.
I am going to check the Summit Pub to see if they'll put it on. If so, that is where I'll be for a bit tonight.
So anyone who is neutral or pro-Hillary, I'll post again here at 4ish, if Summit will show the caucus. =)
Bah, I can't find anything. Local pub is playing the Bowl game, and everyone is a bastard.
I guess its the internets or bust!
