The Primaries

At the start of this presidential primary season, it looked like Hillary Clinton would easily be the Democrat nominee, and the likely next president. Meanwhile, we expected the Republican nomination fight to drag on for months.

Instead, the Republican party has picked perhaps the strongest nominee it could, while the Democrats are engaged in a bloody, protracted struggle that is tearing their party apart along racial and demographic lines.

The RCP general election poll averages now show John McCain leading Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton, despite a faltering economy and various other headwinds for McCain.
