Political Wire: "'Nevada could become the New Hampshire of the West under a proposal being considered by national Democrats seeking to broaden the pool of voters choosing the presidential nominee,' according to the Reno Gazette-Journal. Nevada is 'one of two Western states likely to be targeted for a January presidential caucus in 2008.' Meanwhile, the AP reports that 'Nevada and Colorado are the most likely candidates in the West largely because neither has joined a separate movement to hold a Feb. 5 Western States Primary.' Nevada in particular is 'being considered for the January vote because of its growing Hispanic population, large number of union households and booming population.'"
The Moderate Voice: "The New York Sun's Josh Gerstein writes what some talking heads in television have begun to say in passing: Arizona Senator John McCain's star is (for now at least) on the ascent."
Oval Office 2008: "War or nor war, John Brummett of the Arkansas News Bureau reckons Hillary Clinton is unbeatable in the race for the Democratic presidential nomination in 2008. He expressed this view last week at a meeting of Arkansas county government executives at the Clinton Presidential Library. Hillary has already sewn up the nomination, Brummett reckons, 'owing to the factors that decide party presidential nominations: celebrity, money and good will in the base.'"
