In Round Two, Hillary Clinton struck back, winning decisively in New Hampshire, making the contest even again.
In Round Three, with the state of South Carolina up for grabs and Obama’s viability as a serious candidate with national appeal in question, he came back, soundly defeating Hillary Clinton.
Senator John Edwards, who is from South Carolina, could not even carry his own state and came in a distant third.
Buh-Bye John EdwardsJohn Edwards ran for Vice-President of the United States on the ticket with challenger John Kerry, in a losing effort to unseat President George Bush nearly four years ago. Edwards has lost every primary he has since entered, and is expected to drop out of the race shortly.
While he has won some delegates, Edwards will try to acquire as many of them as possible through the upcoming Super Tuesday primary contest, where about half of the states in America hold their elections on the same day. Edwards will then throw his delegates behind either Clinton or Obama.
Edwards could also be jockeying for another VP slot, he faces political exile if the Dems don’t win the White House.
Hillary vs. Obama
This election is exciting. The challenges the next President of the United States faces are unprecedented and ominous, with direct ramifications for world peace.
Americans have overwhelmingly said that they are "ready" for both a female President and/or its first Black President. While it is great that racial prejudice is becoming a thing of the past, voters will decide if they want this particular woman to be its next President, or this specific Senator.
McCain vs. RomneyOn the Republican side, you have Arizona Senator John McCain and former Massachusetts Governor Mitt Romney in the lead.
Others have dropped out of the race or are in serious trouble.
