Super Tuesday: After today, road ahead could become easier to find, but no less rocky

Well, it's finally here.

Super Tuesday.

Nearly a dozen states will hold primaries today in an effort to choose the nominees for president. With hundreds of delegates at stake it could prove to be the most crucial day in the campaign. More delegates to presidential nominating conventions can be won on Super Tuesday than on any other single day of the primary calendar.

Will Donald Trump continue earn enough delegates to build on his commanding lead in the Republican field? Or will Ted Cruz and Marco Rubio pick up enough delegates to continue to make it a race?

Will Hillary Clinton outdistance Bernie Sanders and take an insurmountable lead in the Democratic process? Or will Sanders earn enough delegates to continue to make it a true race for the nomination?

These questions will be answered today, or at least most of them.

Trump, despite his gaffe over David Duke and the KKK, appears as strong as ever. And Clinton may be on the verge on taking over in the Democratic race.
