Why Democrats Should Support McCain — So after eight years of waiting, my main man — Senator Johnny Mac — finally won a primary in the very state that, in 2000, helped set the course for the so-called Bush presidency. — Good for John. Unfortunately, I fear the most challenging days …

HOW THE DELEGATES ARE APPORTIONED — HOW THE DELEGATES ARE APPORTIONED — New York Sen. Hillary Clinton won Nevada on Saturday — or did she? — Clinton got nearly 51 percent of the delegates apportioned by Saturday's Democratic precinct caucuses, to Illinois Sen. Barack Obama's 45 percent.

BY MAUREEN DOWD, DERRY, NEW HAMPSHIRE — One of the highlights of my trip to Israel this past August was the helicopter tour that took us from Herzliya down the separation fence and over to Sderot. My guide on the helicopter was Calev Ben-David, who is in the middle of our group in the photograph accompanying “A view from the fence.”

Did Obama Lose Nevada Because of his Reagan Remarks? — I've discussed the ‘swing liberal’ block before, noting that this group moved from Obama to Clinton between Iowa and New Hampshire. Unfortunately, we can't really fully understand this trend in Nevada because the entrance polls aren't great.
