And what "rumor" is it you are trying to claim with Michigan and Florida delegates? The party has made it pretty clear that if those delegates are seated at all, it will only be after a nominee has emerged (making their participation totally useless). |

Should Clinton get the nomination, do you think Obama would be interested in the VP slot? That could be a pretty formidable team. Or is there too much water under the bridge?

Why do you think Republicans will have things sorted out after Super Tuesday? If anything, I think they will be more muddled than the Democrats. Romney will take several states (including Florida with half its delegates available due to the Republican penalty), and McCain will take several. Giuliani could take one or two. Huckabee will likely take a few in the south. |

Major network anchors may ho-hum, and the candidates themselves may not campaign there, but the vote still matters. If something other than "the expected" outcome happens ... expect it to get covered, expect it to have an influence. Quote:
PS. I'm not claiming, by the way, that the Florida Democrat primary has the same implications as the Republican one. Just to be clear.

It will either be Romney or McCain, and I think McCain wins Florida. The latest SurveyUSA poll from yesterday has him up 5 while Rasmussen has Romney up 5. No clear trend and McCain is a scrappy SOB. Call it a hunch.

If Romney loses, he has no one but himself to blame. He mislabeled himself and miscalculated. If he wins, it will be despite these poor decisions.

Obama should not have been a wimp and really gone for her throat after her shot about a "slum lord" helping to raise money for Obama's campaign. One name is all it would take: Norman Hsu. You are correct, it will be an interesting two weeks. Here's to Obama and Mrs. Clinton attacking each other to the point that they both lose focus of the objective and Edwards winning the nomination by coming through the back door.

Perhaps you could tutor him about staying on message.
