Tuesday is always special because it’s when each new issue of the Washington Examiner magazine hits the street. But this is no ordinary Tuesday; it’s Super Tuesday. Alabama, Arkansas, California, Colorado, Maine, Massachusetts, Minnesota, North Carolina, Oklahoma, Tennessee, Texas, Utah, Vermont, and Virginia all choose who they want to be the Democratic presidential nominee. (President Trump will, of course, clean up among Republicans.)

Super Tuesday has massive weight. It’s when Trump broke the back of GOP resistance to his nomination in 2016, winning seven states to Ted Cruz’s three, and Marco Rubio’s one. It’ll reveal whether Bernie Sanders can do the same thing on the Democratic side of the ledger, or whether Michael Bloomberg’s billions or Joe Biden’s something-or-other can stall the party’s swoon into the arms of the 78-year-old unreconstructed Marxist, Bernie Sanders. So, this might be Supernova Tuesday, when the politics we’ve known explodes.
