McCain is winning almost every winner-take-all state on Super Tuesday.

Connecticut, New York, New Jersey, Missouri, and Arizona.

Plus leads in proportional states including Illinois, Georgia, Tennessee, Alabama, Minnesota, and Oklahoma.

The best Mitt can do is Utah, split California, maybe Colorado, maybe Montana, Massachusetts.

Missouri is still up for grabs.

Minnesota is a caucus state so polls don’t really matter.

Tennessee is very close as is Alabama, and Huckabee actually leads in Georgia.

Romney will take Utah and Mass, and he can conceivable do very well in the 6 caucus states of Colorado, Minnesota, West Virginia, Alaska, North Dakota and Montana.

McCain will in all likelihood be ahead by 150-200 delegates, but still within striking distance at the end of the day.

JohnnyZ, Mitt has a 19-point lead in Colorado. No maybe about it. He’ll win Montana. And mark my words: he WILL win Arizona. Tennessee has been steadily trending Romney, as well.

We shall see. This Tennesseean is voting his way.
