This interesting page at the Washington Post gives a quick visual rundown of a key discrepancy between the current field of Democrats and the current field of Republicans competing for their party's respective 2008 nomination.
The Republicans are all men, all white, and seem to vary more by styles of coming their hair than by social or cultural identity.
The Democratic candidates, by contrast, show diversity of race, gender, and region. The bottom line: Democrats are more diverse than Republicans.
Surprised? Probably not. But this may mean a very different dynamic between the two fields--a more multicultural politics for Democrats.
