The two-point-something campaign

Published



This spring it seems as if there have been two-point-something Republican presidential candidacy announcements per week. And, since she made her own announcement April 12, Hillary Clinton has answered an average of about two-point-something questions from the press each week.

Those (imprecise) statistics illustrate the asymmetrical nature of the presidential race. One party has so many candidates that media sponsors can’t figure out how to get them all in a presidential debate. The other has one candidate who attends events only with hand-picked audiences and has little to say about anything.
