Another week, another primary, this time in Michigan.
I have to level with you: it’s getting harder to write the previews for these primaries, and you can probably understand why. There are no surprises and no excitement, but we all know that the voters of Michigan want to make their voices heard.
There’s only so much one can write about contests where we already know who the winner will be. The inevitability of the Trump-Biden rematch gets clearer every day, so here we are.

Oh, and Nikki Quixote is still around, tilting at the windmills of trying to win the nomination. I can’t help but think that one day her name will be synonymous with dreaming the impossible dream. “The Man of La Mancha” will be given a woke update with a female lead…
