A fanciful scenario where neither Obama nor Clinton is the Democratic nominee for president.
  • What For?

    This handwringing about a "meltdown" and "mess" in the Democratic camp is the product of media boredom between primary events and the Clinton group's growing desperation. We had a primary season, Obama sealed the nomination by compiling the most delegates and votes. There is no nightmare scenario, just a split among superdelegates reflecting the dimensions of support for both candidates themselves and a face-off between the senators from Illinois and Arizona in the fall.
