The U.S. would win. Due to the logistical locations of China and Russia they would dessimate one another.
Either country would have to decide how they were going to make the long trip across the Atlantic or the hike across the Bering sea and down the canadian coast to even get to America.
In this case America would now be in the same position Germany was in prior to the D-Day invasion. As long as our navy and airforce could keep the russians and chinese from getting a foothold in North America, we'd be good, however, if they ever got a beach head on North American soil, the amount of troops and machinery ththey would throw onto the beach in a short amount of time would overwhelm us.
For people saying we have air superiority over them and that we would just bomb them to hell, they are mistaken on several fronts.
1. The U.S. has admitted it cannot bomb all of Iraq's problems away due to the vastness of the country and it's long borders with Iran, how would the U.S. do that to two countries the size of 35 Iraqs?
2. We are statring to see just barely what surface to air missles can do to U.S. aircraft in the hands of trained personnel in Iraq. The SAM weapons systems our airforce would encounter over China and Russia would be 10 times superior than what we came up against in Vietnam. Extended sorties over huge land masses like russia would eventually dessimate the U.S. air force.
The U.S. would have to fight a defensive war against either country and use our navy and airforce to strike them in particular areas where they are vulnerable.

The USA has the best weapons hands down. We would not even attempt to fight a ground war in the other countries. The only issue we would really have is the true accuracy of China's and Russia's ICBMs. If the US just stayed back and let China and Russia slug it out for awhile all the better.

The USA because all of Russia's Nukes are monitored and if they did deploy one the USA would stop it before it could reach anywhere. The USA would not send their Infantry in on foot, they would keep bombing Russia all day and all night for a few months until Russia surrenders. Also, the USA has allies such as Britain, and the rest of Europe and South and North America. The British and USA armies soldiers are better trained than the Russian soldiers. The technology is also better. We have the SAS. The USA have the Navy Seals.

Depends on about what kind of war you are asking.
If it is economic then you better go long term with China because they are growing rapaciously under very favorable trade conditions vis a vie taxes and balance of trade with most of the world. As the rising expectations and the desire for freedom of and in their populace surfaces this may slow down, stop and reverse. Even with this factor China will eventually be the world economic leader if a major war or internal strife does not decrease their population or momentum.
If you mean from a purely military aspect and you mean an all out, no holds barred war, then there is no match for the USA. China does not have the quantity of devices nor quality of delivery of any device that the USA has and now neither does Russia. It isn't even a contest, even if the newer USA missile defense measures do not work or get online quickly enough to stop any nuclear devices from hitting the US. There would be tens of millions killed and all the turmoil of a nuclear holocaust.
But if it is less than total war, then you must consider that China has about 80 times the number of men of military age fit for service as does Russia and about 25 times as many as the USA. China would undoutably beat Russia in a convential land, air and sea war despite their inferior equipment, Siberia which they would have to cross and all the Russian mistic. And they share a long land border with Russia and summertime short ocean routes. If China shared a land border with the USA, the same result would occur but they have no means of landing significant numbers of troops in the USA. They would suffer decimating losses trying to get them here because of their inferior equipment and eventual lack of means even in a conventional war.
I doubt we will see a showdown of this nature with any sort of allying scenario that you might define. There is simply not enough to gain and too much to lose for all of those nations. China's best bet is to defeat the West economically. However, bringing an adequate standard of living to her huge population will hinder that in the long run.
There are other forms of war but this is enough to consider now, and the other forms are less easily understood and analyzed.
While I would not totally trust the CIA for all the facts, their country profiles tend to be based on sound, recent research and are reliable. Check out the links below. Pay attention to the fact that China has more men of military age capable of military service then the USA or Russia have total population and think about the ramifications of that fact on the possible answers to this query. See Jane's and other such resources for military assessments.

This is a hypothetical Q.
In today's environment everyone knows and realise the horrors of big war with modern weapons.ULTIMATELY IT IS THE VOICE OF PEOPLE IS STRONG.iT WON'T ALLOW ANY COUNTRY TO GO IN BIG WAR.Everyone want to live and exist whether he is a politician or a common man.
Big countries are more responsible thesr days with intelligent heads of state.
Look at the stalemat with Iran and NK.It is dragging but never goes to breaking point.Why? No one wants war includong America.

If it was conventional warfare like the type of action seen during WWII then the United States would most likely win, but would be severely damaged both militarily and economically.
Reasons the United States would 'win*' in a conventional conflict.
* When I say win they'd defeat the other's military power but would have dug their own grave. 90% of the merchandise you see in Wall Mart says "Made in China"
1) Take a look at a map. Take a real close look. Notice that the United States isn't even on the same continent as the other two countries. The United States has two natural defences in its favour, the Atlantic Ocean and the Pacific Ocean. One might point out that Russia and Canada Nearly border each other. Yes they do, but they're have to brave the conditions of the artic then march themselves along the Canadian coast where they'd be vulnerable to American air strikes before they could directly attack American Soil.
2) The Peoples Liberation Army of China is 2.8 million strong, but poorly equipped, poorly trained and their country doesn't have the ability to support them in a long conquest into the United States. The PLA has 8,500 tanks but most of them are outdated Soviet models from the Cold War. The M1A1 MBT was directly designed to be superior to Soviet Tanks of that time period. Note the M1A1 is now the M1A3 MBT, a more advanced modernized version. China now produces the Type 99 MBT. This is considered one of the worlds leading tanks but is produced in limited quantities compared to the M1A3. The PLA's air force is outdated and ill equipped and would be decimated by both the Unites States Air Force and ground forces if it was forced to fly sorties over the United States. The Chinese Navy is made up of mostly old Soviet subs and surface ships which are outdated compared to American nuclear carrier task forces.
3) The Soviet Union operated one of the largest and most advanced armies in the world, comparable only to the United Stated Armed Forces. But since the demise of the Soviet Union the Red Army has gradually slipped into a state of disrepair. In fact Russia has lost most of its military and economic ability to wage a prolonged war.
4) Some say that Russia has some of the advanced military technology in the world. The T-212UM1 "Black Eagle" MBT some would argue if the worlds most advanced MBT. This may be true, but Russia doesn't have the economy to produce them in big enough quantities, or even get them out of the prototype stage at all.
5) Seeing as all three countries are at war in this scenario, and The United States isn't on the same continent then The Russians and the Chinese would battle it out on their own turf. The outcome of this would be unclear. Neither country has the ability to assimilate the other country and neither country would surrender. The outcome would probably be something like the end of the Vietnam War when it will become to costly and expensive for one of the countries to keep fighting it's nearly defeated opponent. At this point the United States will sweep through the remaining enemy forces with relative ease. The United States will have up to this point only been operation of the coast in Naval and air operations with limited actual fighting on the ground. The ground offensive will be costly to American Forces because the Chinese people will not surrender and will fight to their deaths.
Reasons the whole world loses in a nuclear war between these three nations.
Scenario: After strained diplomatic relations, China's continual military build up and invasion of Taiwan, the United States threatens military action. A week later American forces move into Taiwan encountering fierce resistance, though costly for American troops they successfully liberate Taiwan. With the threat of American forces invading China itself Chinese officials decide the only way to stop the United States it to use Nuclear Weapon. China launches nuclear devices at Taiwan, and American cities including San Francisco, New York and Washington D.C.
The Russians misstate the missiles as a threat towards them and launch their own retaliatory strike towards China. This prompts China to launch more nuclear weapons towards Russia. Meanwhile The United Stated has detected the ICBMs launched at the United States and launched it's own strike at China as the reports come in from Taiwan.
American, Chinese and Russian Cities are hit and the civilian death toll is catastrophic, meanwhile the nuclear exchange continues until a foreign body (like the UN) intervenes and stops anymore action. By this time most of the major cities in the United States China and Russia have been hit. The Nuclear fallout is devastating causing the whole world to plummet into a nuclear winter. Everyone Loses.
Luckily no matter who crazy the leadership of our countries are they don’t want war and would probably never recover from a war of such scale. China continues to bluff its way into the world’s stage while the United States is tied to Iraq and Russia is economically to weak to do much of anything.

I hope that everybodie's not mistaking China with Japan.
I barely heard of China winning any wars.
And Russia takes time to supply.
So probably USA.

Who would win?
The nukes, period. Doesn't matter who launches.
It only takes one country to launch one before every other nuke-holding country wants to play war games. Before you know it, there are so many warheads flying back and forth above everyone, you'd think it was the 4th of July. Then, we're in nuclear winter and we ALL lose.
