The same-day registration provision could end up giving Paul a boost, I guess, based on nothing but a hunch that people inclined to vote for him are less likely to be registered. Huckabee is also one to watch for since the churches seem to be good at mobilizing young people these days (thanks Karl!). The longer line for first-time voters is inspiring.
