Today is Super Tuesday, which has nothing to do with a day of the week that rescues the other days of the week when they fall down a well or something. Rather, it refers to the fact that almost two dozen states will be holding primaries today.
On the Republican side, the contest has pretty much narrowed down to being between Arizona Senator John McCain and former Massachusetts Governor Mitt Romney. The two have have spent much of the last few days arguing about which of them is more conservative.
It is unclear if they are referring to the definition of "conservative" as it applied during the Reagan years (a smaller Federal government and responsible government spending), or the new, more modern definition of conservative (a Federal government that forces you to live according to someone's interpretation of the Bible, advocates scuttling the Constitution, and wants to run up deficits like there's no tomorrow).
