6. The traditional idea
Was that candidates would have the time to run campaigns in many states over the course of several months with the field gradually being winnowed out as voters in all regions got to have their say. And believe it or not, it really used to work that way with the winners sometimes not being decided until June.

I'm not a fan of this super-duper-Tuesday thing that's going to hit us in February. I think it's going to be a case of "Wham! Bam! Thank you MSM!"
