...Super Bowl, the odds makers have a clear favorite, McCain, who is riding a double-digit lead in national polls and significant Mac-mentum coming out of his win in Florida. He also benefits from Huckabee, a distant challenger who is far more likely to bleed conservative voters away from Romney than the more independent McCain. But unlike the Super Bowl, the Republican nomination has about fifteen different time clocks and ways of keeping score.

Everyone in the Clinton campaign knew that Tuesday evening would be a chance to reframe the race. But throughout primary day they believed the reframing would follow a New Hampshire loss to Barack Obama - possibly by a double-digit margin, according to some polls and the campaign's own worst fears. "I was with them all day," said one friend, who watched Clinton and her team write the first drafts of her speech in a Concord hotel suite. "They did not see this coming. No one did."
