Primaries 2008: Hillary Clinton wins the primary in Iowa with 34% of the vote, while Senator Obama comes in 2nd with 27% and Senator John Edwards with 25%. Clinton goes on to win NH by a comfortable margin and the following primaries on Feb. 5. She then decides to pick Governor Bill Richardson as her running mate.
Meanwhile on the Republican side Rudy Giuliani decides in July 2007 that he will run as an
Independent. Following that and the decision by Newt Gingrich not to seek the presidency, John McCain, the Senator from Arizona, wins Iowa by a comfortable margin, but barely survives a bitter fought NH primary, where the once beliefed "dead" (Keyword: "Mormon") Mitt Romney comes within 1% of McCain. McCain later wins several primaries in the West as well as in the South, guaranteeing him the GOP nomination. He chooses former Colorado Governor Bill Owens as his running mate.
Also deciding to run as an Independents: Michael Bloomberg of New York, Chuck Hagel of Nebraska and Ralph Nader.
Ok, thatīs it.
