In an election where he should have received 65% + of the vote, it was not a good showing, I just bet on the spread. It wasn't a National referendum it was a Cannon referendum, he won and I made some money but it wasn't a win that I would have expected, absent the immigration issue.

Considering the amount of out-of-state PACs, money and volunteers, it was a good win...and a huge defeat for those who tried to make that primary a referendum.

Actually, Cannon shouldn't have even been challenged at the Utah State Republican Convention this year--let alone outpointed by a political novice. Jacob came very close to bumping Cannon out at convention cleanly and summarily.

If Cannon doesn't shape up, he'll be challenged again at the next Republican State Convention in 2008. Without Bush shilling for him, he'll lose big.
