 A host of horrors might yet haunt front-runners
To hear some in the political community talk, Hillary Clinton has the Democratic nomination for president all locked up, and Rudy Giuliani has a commanding lead on the Republican side.Uh, people who want to place big bets on those two right now should ask President Howard Dean for some counseling.

To hear some in the political community talk, Hillary Clinton has the Democratic nomination for president all locked up, and Rudy Giuliani has a commanding lead on the Republican side.Uh, people who want to place big bets on those two right now should ask President Howard Dean for some counseling.To be sure, Clinton and Giuliani lead in national polls.

They've been told so often they are important and that their decision counts that they've come to really believe it. So, they take their sweet time watching debates and the way candidates conduct themselves before making a choice.The Iowa Poll shows 25 percent of them have actually met a candidate. (Which also means 75 percent haven't - yet.)- In Iowa, Clinton leads the Democratic pack with 29 percent of the vote.
