What Could Have Been

The polls are fluctuating wildly in these final days (Romney and Obama ahead in California?). Still, it looks like McCain will probably get the nomination and no matter what the Democrat split, there'll be serious pressure put on Clinton and Obama to wrap this up soon.

What a shame. Just a few weeks ago, if only Florida voters hadn't abandoned Rudy for McCain, and if Edwards had just gotten a few more percentage points, we could still have a wide open race.

But no, voters rush toward winners, and all the fun is taken out of the race. Oh well, maybe in four years.
