Our Holiday Hiatus comes to a close

Hello blog readers!

Now that the holidays are over, the blog cycle will be picking up as we move into a very exciting phase in Presidential elections: "primary season." Although primaries are not necessarily the only method of selecting a state's presidential nominee (see Chelsea's post on the Iowa Caucus), the next four months will likely determine a definite Democratic and Republican Presidential candidate and thus are hugely important in the Presidential campaigns. If you are wondering where the Know Your Candidate segment went, that will be reemerging as soon as the New Hampshire primary is over (that is Tuesday, January 8th). At that point, I will take the top 3 Republican and Democrat finishers in the Iowa Caucus and New Hampshire primary and write a section on each of them. If the top 3 finishers are different (for example, if Rudy Giuliani, Mitt Romney and John McCain were the top 3 in New Hampshire and Mitt Romney, John McCain and Mike Huckabee were top 3 in Iowa) then I will write a section on all 4 of those candidates.

Thanks for reading and Happy Holidays!
