But what does it all mean?

Are we happier that the Democratic nomination process is dragging on far longer than our cynical selves would have ever predicted? Or is there now some comfort in the idea of having known since New Hampshire who we'd be nominating in Denver this summer? Is this good or bad for Democratic interest and turnout in the future.

I heard one commentator tonight say that she thought if both Clinton and Obama would direct their attacks at McCain and try to show which would be the better match in the Fall on the general election ballot. If they go after each other, they risk winning the battle and losing the war: showing the other to be bad for national security doesn't reallllllly help, does it? Yeah, I don't think so either. Then again, at least there's an honest to god choice being made. Like, people get to vote for SOMETHING. That's good, right?
