In Our Opinion: The race within 'the race'

The Open Race everyone seeks is NOW. The parties' nominees, however, will be known very early, sometime in March, probably. The conventions are no longer events for choosing the nominee and more events to showcase him or her to the nation. Total TV coverage will be lower, reflecting less suspense and the voters' tendency to decide their votes less on speeches and more on a general impression. Given Utah's one-party registration, if the candidates don't come soon, they will most likely not come at all.
