McCain a clear winner; Democrats race still too tight to call nationally, Camelot closes

The big losers yesterday were Romney and Kennedy, latterday friends in their home state.  The big winners here were the younger Democratic pols who mostly backed Clinton and Beacon Hill which did the same.  One local Cape pundit said, "it likes like the half century reign of Camelot has ended in Massachusetts."

John McCain tightened his grip yesterday on the Republican presidential nomination while Senators Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama battled into the early hours today in their 22-state Super Tuesday showdown and it looks like they'ree be battling right into the convention.

The only real surprise yesterday was Huckabee's strength, winning five states and blocking Romney's bid for the White House.  The polls can't yet predict racial or gender bias outside the polling booth. The exit polls in the south seem to indicate whaite males prefer a black American over a woman.
