All the successful recent comedies (The 40 Year Old Virgin, The Wedding Crashers, Knocked Up, to name three) have tended toward the raunchy end of the spectrum. It's as if Hollywood's wise guys have recognized that middle-class American life is just too complicated, perhaps even too inherently miserable, to get an intelligent handle on.

Louisiana, Nebraska and the Virgin Islands also hold contests on Saturday, but none of them can match Washington's 97 delegates.

...midway through savoring sizzling Chorizos braised in Asturian cider, anchovies on a bed of oven-roasted eggplant, braised octopus with smoked paprika and extra virgin olive oil, and langoustines à la plancha.
