With a few tough campaign ads putting him on the defensive and several polls showing Sen. Barack Obama's momentum stalled, the storyline for the Democratic presidential race is primed for yet another twist: Can Sen. Hillary Clinton be the comeback kid?
It's been the most remarkable race of our generation. When Clinton needed a win after losing Iowa, she came through in New Hampshire. When Obama needed a big win, he came through in South Carolina. Now, with Clinton forced into a corner after 11 defeats in a row, early signs indicate she might survive to fight on until Pennsylvania.
Of course, the voters haven't weighed in yet and the polls have been notoriously unreliable this year. Add to this the implications of open primaries, early voting and bad weather and it's really anyone's guess who might win tonight.
But I am certain of one thing: It's going to be very exciting.
An Exciting Night Ahead
