How about another sports analogy?
McCain is like the Cowboys - cruising into the playoffs after vacationing ( hosting bbq's for the press ) - or Tampa Bay - resting starters - fizzling out because he hasn't faced any tough competition before the big game.

Dem candidate will be like Giants - capitalizing on a crescendo of momentum after long hard fought on the road victories.

Big Blue = BIG BLUE

1. There was an article today at Salon
suggesting the long primaries might be good for Dems for kind of the same reasons you mentioned.

2. Isn't Hillary more like the Pats?
She dominated the early season, was the heavy favorite and then let her own hubris lead to defeat.
