Preview of Today's "Potomac Primaries" in Va., Md. and DC: Obama Expected to Roll in All Three; McCain May Be Challenged in Va, But Not in Other Two

Published Feb 12 2008, 11:44 AM by webteam

The primaries continue on today with contests in Maryland, Virginia, and Washington, D.C. Anything other than huge victories for Barack Obama in all three will be a surprise, continuing his momentum and putting him into the delegate lead. On the GOP side, it would be a shock if McCain doesn't win Maryland and DC; Virginia, like most southern states this time around, appears up for grabs.

Would be interesting to speculate on Mike Huckabee's coming role in the GOP. He's a regional candidate with intense appeal to evangelical Christians. Machine Gun McCain will likely get the necessary delegate counts. A whole-hearted endorsement of McCain by Huckabee would result in his own undoing and the radical right wouldn't support McCain on Huckabee's say-so. Bush, in calling McCain a conservative as he did on some Sunday talk show, may be building a bridge that by-passes Huckabee in making McCain look acceptable to Huckabee followers. Huckabee for VP? Fuggedaboutit! The man has an agenda, he's a social and religious activist, and the very limited VP role would have him squirming in his seat. Curious to see how the radical right is re-integrated into this year's presidential sweepstakes.

Obama’s days of greatest power and popularity lie before him. But be warned: he might not do what you want with it.
