4. Primary results
Any democratic candidate should in theory beat McCain- so the GE isn't as important. However, if Clinton wins, the GE becomes meaningless, since we're screwed either way. So the primary is more imporant, in determining whether the GE is worth even bothering.

5. Two different contests
Primary results matter when choosing a candidate. GE results matter when choosing a president. Is this hard to understand?
