69% of votes in Nevada are counted and the BBC are confident enough to call Nevada for Clinton. Clinton's support in the Hispanic community seems to have won out over Obama's support in the unions. The nexus of these two lobbies is the casinos of Las Vegas and some of them - for the first time - held caucuses on site to make it easier for their employees to vote. Kudos to them for doing so, below is a photo of the Clinton family in Vegas.

Meanwhile, the Republicans have basically seen Nevada wrapped up by Mitt Romney thanks to the state's 7% Mormon population and attention has been focused on South Carolina. In South Carolina, Senator McCain seems to hold a narrow lead. As all elections since 1980 will attest, McCain will be the Republican nominee come the autumn.

We had our PCC and Leadership Team "Away Day" today. The reason I've put Away Day in quotation marks is that we went to the coffee lounge at St Paul's - hardly away.

Anyway, we were meeting about our Mission Audit and the feedback we've received from the church through anonymous questionnaires we gave out over the New Year period.

All in all it was a very fruitful time and should give us a great platform from which to minister into 2008. Some of the discussions also fed into my sermon for tomorrow, Titus 2: Live Wisely. Ogg Vorbis/MP3 available on Monday (I expect) from the Bursledon Parish Sermons page.
