Is that why Richardson's percentage has been growing?

Numerically that gives Obama the equivalent of a 16,000 vote majority, with Edwards around 1,000 votes ahead of Clinton.

(Or at least that's how it would work with a single ballot instead of the caucus system.)

What's the R turnout in comparison?

That's a shame about Dodd. I really like him. As far as I can tell, he's a truly decent guy.

He is, indeed, dropping out. The campaign sent out a bunch of emails. Atrios has it up.

Biden and Dodd are out.
