Tick-tock...

...countin' down to Armageddon for Howard Dean?

Sean Hackbarth at The American Mind collected varied opinions in Duck Hunt #8.

Dodd Harris' Predictions Are Off To A Bad Start

I'm watching the traditional "first returns" from Dixville Notch, NH live on C-SPAN. In between the cameraman's obsessive shots of all the other news cameras, one can just make

out the results:

Clark: 8
Dean: 1
Edwards: 2
Kerry: 3
Lieberman: 1

Which means absolutely nothing.

Tacitus has spoken:

"Kerry will win in New Hampshire by a comfortable margin. No surprise.

Edwards will win second, but it will be close."

And so it shall come to pass. Or not.

The good news is that historically the New Hampshire primary winner seldom wins the general election. Since 1952 only four Democrats have won both New Hampshire and the White House.

Super Tuesday is the big magillah, delegate-wise...until then it's just the media peeing in each other's pockets. Pray for a clear winner on or before Super Tuesday, a brokered convention would a nightmare.
