Okay, I would hope that even those who are not interested in politics are aware of the importance of February 5th to an election year. If not, it is the day in which 24 states hold the primaries and caucus' in which its citizens decide which candidates they wish to represent both the Republican and Democratic parties in the race for the presidency.
Upon the aftermath of this years "super Tuesday" there are three frontrunners. Senator McCain for the Republican party, and, ah, both Senators Obama and Clinton are still "in" the Democratic race in a big way. Sure, Mike Huckabee and Mitt Romney have had a decent showing over the course of the primaries. Honestly though, a baptist minister or a Mormon? Both are favorites amongst conservatives but, believe it or not, conservatives don't have the ability to control everything. While McCain has pulled way ahead, he is shaking in his boots at the thought of losing the conservative vote and is, apparantly, throwing his efforts to convincing him he is "one of them". Oh boy.
On a side note, Senator McCain came to my school this Sunday. Sacred Heart University in Fairfield Connecticut, woooweee. Despite the fact that I have no intentions on voting for him I decided to check it out. As a result of the poor planning by my school, I couldn't hear anything so I left, I would've rather hung out with the protestors outside my school parading around a sign-- "Not another war" complete with a massive makeshift missle being ridden by the one and only George Bush holding a gun. Hilarious.
Anyway, Obama made up for a lot of lost ground on Tuesday, as many people were sure Clinton would be a sure thing after the 24 primaries. Clinton does have more projected delegates but Obama has certainly proved himself. Only time will tell who will come out on top, but it sure makes for an interesting primary race!
