Indiana normally is a complete bystander in the presidential nomination process. By the time Indiana's primary is held the first Tuesday in May, the leading candidate in each party has already won enough delegates in other states to clinch the nomination, making Hoosier voters irrelevant. Not since 1968, when Sen. Robert F. Kennedy won the state during his short bid for the presidency, has the Indiana primary mattered much to the nomination process.

Topics that never would have entered the public realm, such as the proper role of superdelegates within the Democratic Party, the crisis facing the public financing system, and the seating of delegates from states holding their primaries outside their party-prescribed contest window all became grounds for spirited debate. How Presidential Candidates Have Shaped the Modern Nominating System, Elaine C. Kamarck pursues a novel approach in analyzing the presidential nomination process by looking beyond how rules influence office seekers to considering how cerrain candidates have been able to shape these contests themselves.

This research examines influences on the 2008 presidential election. With an unpopular Republican president, an unpopular war, and a slumping economy, 2008 looked to be a good year for the Democrats. On the other hand, open seat elections historically have been close and less affected by retrospective considerations. Moreover, partisanship, ideological polarization, and contested nominations in both parties inclined the electorate to an even division. McCain's more centrist record and Obama's race also seemed to favor the Republicans. Taken together, these factors set the stage for a closely decided election. It was shaping up that way in the polls until the Wall Street meltdown hit in mid-September. It was the "game changer" that tipped the election to Obama.

I think that ([Barack Obama]'s) nomination-his running in the way that he has and opportunity to eveF win the presidency-it's engaging the people who have already been working hard in politics," said Paradise Gray, a local community activist and member of One Hood. "It's making young people of all races involved in the political process. The effects of Obama's campaign and subsequent nomination on Pittsburgh are more localized but still very energized. Dr. Major Mason III, of the campaign group Mon Valley for Obama, said that Obama's nomination will have a "tremendous impact on Pittsburgh" and though extreme prejudice and racism still exist throughout the city, "his candidacy gives our people hope." "I hope he will inspire young people of color in particular to take more seriously the...
It was fascinating to watch the three top contenders for the Democratic nomination discuss their concept of the presidency during Tuesday night's MSNBC debate in Las Vegas. But it was also stunning to realize that the three current and former senators who have survived the shakeout process - Hillary Clinton, Barack Obama and John Edwards - have not a day of chief executive experience behind them. By contrast, the Republican field is loaded with people who are accustomed to being in charge of large organizations. Mitt Romney and Mike Huckabee were governors of their home states of Massachusetts and Arkansas, Rudy Giuliani served as the mayor of New York City, and John McCain, as he likes to remind audiences, commanded the largest squadron in the Navy air wing.
With the race between the first African American and the first woman to get this close to the presidential nomination essentially tied, how does the party decide who will carry the mande to the convention in Denver and then to November? The Clinton camp has pulled out the long knives, making it clear they are ready for a floor fight, willing to seat the illicit Florida and Michigan delegations, and wooing superdelegates with every threat and bribe they can muster. Their slash-and-burn tactics have worked for them in the past but may have run up against their limits this year. Or their equal. The [Barack Obama] folks aren't known for pulling punches, either. Jimmy Carter, the other living Democratic ex-president, has the resume and negotiating skills to make it happen, but may be too far...
