This is it, folks:

Political junkies, take heed. The next 2 weeks will be the most interesting to watch. For the Democrats, that is. As the outcome of the race hinges on whatever happens in the primaries, we are already starting to hear noises about how important (or not) various states should be, what a superdelegate should do, how to handle Florida and Michigan, and the likely outcome of a Howard Dean / James Carville cage match. Most of this spin is coming from the Clinton camp, but that's not particularly important. In terms of pure politics, the expectations game, the argument over who is a better general election candidate, and back-and-forth attacks, this is the prime season.

So enjoy it while it lasts.
