More convention delegates can be won today than on any other single day in 2008. Twenty-four states are holding primaries or caucuses, with 52 percent of all pledged Democratic Party delegates and 41 percent of the total Republican Party delegates still up for grabs.
This is the very first year that Super Tuesday in February has had this much influence in the selection of presidential nominees. In the past, New Hampshire and Iowa had more influence and other states mainly weighed in in March. This year, twenty-four states with over half the delegates to the national conventions moved to change their primary dates to February 5, 2008, creating the largest "Super Tuesday" to date.
The biggest day in U.S. presidential nominating contests is now underway with Democrats Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton struggling for an edge while Republican John McCain hopes to knock Mitt Romney out of the race - even though we just heard that Mike Huckabee just won West Virginia! Stay tuned! Somebody here is bound to weigh in later! How about you?
