Wasn't Tuesday a great night for politics! Those independent New Hampshire Yankees did it again. When Hillary got choked up on Sunday, it showed that she actually is human and the women responded. She won a very large percentage of the women's vote. Clinton and Obama should split the next two primaries, Michigan and Nevada, so either of them could win the nomination. Even John Edwards could get back into the picture with a good showing in South Carolina. Bill Richardson dropped out, but he's a good man and he's probably shooting for VP.
The Republicans are even more undecided. We could have contests in five different states, with five different winners. It might not even be decided on "Super Tuesday", February 5th, when something like 23 states hold their primaries. Huckabee should do well in the South with the Christian Conservatives, but they also like sleepy Ol' Fred Thompson. John McCain should do well in the West, but they don't like him in the South. Rudy is still in the running, but he's pro-choice, pro-gun control, pro-gay rights, etc. so he has his work cut out for him. The guy who is hard to figure is Romney. His sincerity, or lack of it, is a problem. His religion shouldn't be a factor, but it is. He's a smart guy, so it will be interesting to watch him in the next few weeks. It's like watching a case study in political science.
