in that Kerry won early, Dean imploded, and Edwards ran a spirited but firmly cemented in second place campaign. There was really never much in contention. Unlike now, where the split has been very wide and each of the top two candidates has won a share of the primaries so far.

Before the primary season began, there was really nothing much to argue about. Everyone here believed Bush is a flaming moron, ne of the greatest detriments to this country that we have seen since Nixon. But now we have something to argue about; how best to undue his tainted legacy.

Once the primaries wind up, it will all return to normal here. Peopleon all sides here realizse there's too much at stake to continue another Nader-like splintering.
