It continues to amaze me that the most recent VP nominee of a major party is only at 88%. And, surely, you'd think Giuliani and McCain would be in the 90s by now. And, heck, that Romney is only at 46% is mindboggling to me. Then again, I only know who won American Idol and Dancing with the Stars because I own a Hollywood site. Most people likely know that stuff very well. True on Clinton.

Flash lights in the eyes of the comatose? Lack of name recognition at this point probably isn't a bad thing. If Sen. Clinton is the Democratic nominee, the election could be held tomorrow—everybody's already made up their minds. Where is there to go above 98% name recognition?
