Democratic front-runner John Kerry is looking for a coast-to-coast sweep that would knock rival John Edwards out of the race.
Kerry, has dominated the Democratic presidential battle with 18 wins in the first 20 contests, and is favoured in all 10 of the Super-Tuesday states including New York and California.
Edwards though is hoping to spring a few upsets that could keep him alive for at least another week.
The winner of the nomination will challenge President George W Bush in the US elections in November.
Will Kerry get the clean-sweep? Can John Edwards still win? Send us your views.

In Politics, nothing succeeds like success! Voters often end up deciding to vote for the person whom they think will win. Thus, Kerry has good chances for a clean-sweep, although Edwards might manage to win a couple of the Southern States. After today's Primary results, Kerry will have a huge lead in delegates, and will be close to clinching the Democratic nomination. Edwards can still win, but he is no hoping for Kerry to make a gaffe, or for a scadal to erupt. It's not much use doing "better than expected" when you are, in essence, engaged in a two man race!

Kerry will probably win the Democrat nomination, but he won't get my vote and neither will Bush

Kerry will probably win the Democrat nomination, but he won't get my vote and neither will Bush. I'm sure half the country, which happens to be centrists voters, won't vote for either of them. The problem in America's polarized politics is that on election day, voters can only turn right or left, their is no going straight!

Kerry is winning more by default than anything. He hasn't faced an opponent with significant political clout yet. The field of candidates for the nomination was hardly packed with political experience. Kerry will likely win the nomination, but he'll face a much harder task in challenging George W. Bush in November.

Yes, Kerry will win the nomination. I guess the Democrats want to lose. When all is said and done, people will vote for who they personally like the best. Senator. Kerry is not a charismatic guy - but rather morose. Edwards, with his sunny disposition, was the better choice in this regard.

Having just cast my vote for Kerry and after conversations with many friends (Democrats & Independents) I would say that baring a last minute coup by GW Bush, Kerry is set to be our president. It is the possibility of this last minute coup that worries me though. An October Bin Laden capture and we will have to suffer through 4 more years of these ideologues.

Yes! For the sake of all of us; lets hope he remains this way through November 2004.

Kerry is unstoppable in the primaries, but the election is going to be tough. The Republicans are going to use fear as a weapon to try and tilt the election towards their side.

He's an unstoppable as a freight train on a steep downhill course. Bush will be finding out about this in November.

Kerry will win, which will ensure that the Democrats will lose.
Bryan, Atlanta, Georgia USA
Unstoppable indeed. Let's all practice a bit, shall we... "President John Kerry" Presumptuous you say? I don't think so.
Gil, Hawaii, USA
Yes, he is unstoppable. He is not my first choice for Democratic nominee, but he will be OK. I believe that any Democrat can beat Bush this year so I don't care much about the "electability" factor. I'll just be glad that after this year, Bush can do no more damage.
