It is so sad that Simon is such a flawed candidate. Everyone was wondering whether Simon's come-from-way-behind huge upset victory over Riordan could be attributed to [1] campaign brilliance on Simon's part or [2] campaign incompetence on Riordan's part or [3] the strategic decision by Davis to intervene against his perceived strongest challenger (Riordan). After two months it's beginning to look more like choice #2 or #3, probably #3.

It was a combo of #2 and #3, with really more #2, and how #2 handled #3. What is gradually emerging is that if Jones had won, he would have been the odds on favorite, and that condition would have obtained through election day.
