With Fred down and out, I'm trying to become a Romney fan. With the candidates left, he is the best choice. I still would have went for Hunter.
That being said, i have been hearing a lot about how Romney neeeeeeds, the vote in Detroit, to stay in the race. No mention of everyone else. Let's look at the facts, shall we?
| Candidate |
Delegates |
| Rudy Giuliani |
1 |
| Mike Huckabee |
21 |
| Duncan Hunter |
1 |
| John McCain |
10 |
| Ron Paul |
2 |
| Mitt Romney |
30 |
| Fred Thompson |
6 |
| Total |
71 |
If you ask me, it looks like if McCain doesn't get this one, he is out. It also looks like you can just stop talking about Giuliani already. Then there is some guy named Ron Paul!?!?
Needless to say, Romney isn't a favorite among the press or the other candidates, but he is winning, and winning by quite a margin. Even if he keeps getting second places.
And if you care:
| Candidate |
Delegates |
| Hillary Clinton |
183 |

| Dennis Kucinich |
