Genius.

Way to go Democrats. Front load the primary system so that "we'll know the candidate earlier". That seems to be working well. Probably almost as well as your strategy of completely ignoring Michigan and Florida, when in recent years candidates have had to win 3 of the 4 between Michigan, Florida, Ohio and Pennslyvania. It makes perfect sense to have the Republicans telling those key swing states how much they care. Particularly when it comes to Michigan where the economy has been in a recession for some time now, we're leading the country in foreclosures, and there is just a general sense of desperation in the air.

Maybe my annoyance is just my apathy about the entire situation further manifesting itself.
