Hey all. I'm seeing diaries the past few weeks that tell us, with some excitement, who's up a few points, down a few points, in the 2008 Dems' race for the nomination.
Granted, this race is a biggie. Whoever gets the nomination is widely favored to take the presidency; two-thirds of the country are yearning to exorcise Bush like a demon. I've been following the polls with interest, like many of us have. And today, it occurred to me to dig into the recent past and see just where we were in this whole spectacle, just four short years ago. So here is a look back at the equally exciting horse-race of four years ago, same point in the election cycle.
