Campaign 2008

The Democrats divided

St. Paul, Minn. — While Republican presidential candidate John McCain hopes the Potomac primaries will help him shore up conservative support and put an end to Mike Huckabee's campaign, the Democratic race remains a tossup between Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama.

The party nomination could be decided by a small group of superdelegates, or the Democrats could be headed for a brokered convention.
