Today both Rudy Guilini and John Edwards dropped out of the race. Chalk Guilini's up to possibly the riskiest campaign of a major candidate and Edwards' up to strong competition.

Rudy said from the beginning that all of his chips are in Florida. As an outside candidate for the Republican nominee he went with a risky tactic, which if would of worked out would have been heralded as brilliance. I cannot fault him for betting big. To continue the gambling analogy, it's like playing the roullette. You place big and if you win...you win big. Rudy is a dying breed of liberal-republicans so he figured, what the hell...let's have it ride on 29 (January 29th Florida primary) and take those winnings and put them in play in Super Tuesday.

Edwards on the other hand was always the little brother in the race. He kept on wanting to play with his big sister and big brother, but they just wouldn't let him. His charisma was nothing compared to Obama and his $400 haircuts were nothing to Clinton's crying.

So we are heading into Super Tuesday, less than a week away, with the Kennedys backing Obama and Clinton winning a delegate-free race in Florida.
