Here's a quote or two about the primaries.
http://www.extrememortman.com/presidential-election/state-of-dean-ial/"Interesting positioning by DNC chairman Howard Dean on the upcoming Democratic presidential primaries. On C-SPAN he calls it “incredibly unlikely” that Feb. 5th will lock up the Dem nomination.
Here’s Dean, appearing before a Denver University political science class taught by C-SPAN’s Steve Scully
Steve Scully: “Governor, you talked about 1976 and we’ve talked about it in this class when Jimmy Carter ran in January, Feb, and didn’t lock up the nomination until June of 1976. And now ostensibly by February 5th, this process will be completed. Is that good or bad?”
Howard Dean: “It is incredibly unlikely that it’ll be completed on February 5th. I think one of two things will happen; we have a pretty strong field this year, so either someone will sweep three or four of the first four, and they’ll have locked it up by January 29th or whenever it is. Or they’ll split the first four fairly evenly,in which case they’ll split the February 5th states and we won’t know who the nominee is –most likely– until sometime in March."
“If I could push a button and do anything I wanted, I’d move this whole thing back, but there’s been this tug of war over who’s going to go first for a long time. And in 2012, I think we’re going to have to do something fairly drastic to fix this. Because we can’t go on with this sort of disorder. We need real order in the primary process and we also need fairness and inclusiveness to every region in the country and every group of voters in the process.”Amen Governor.
Not sure if John Hopkins??
