In the Romney v McCain matchup, no conservative should want McCain to win:

No conservative should want EITHER of these guys to win. But, since Mitt is such a lying, opportunistic fraud, I'm hoping that he drops out first.

[samtheman]

If Mitt wins Michigan, he provides an opening for Fred.

If McStain wins it, we are all in big trouble.

[dangus]

The idea isn’t for Mitt to win the whole country... just to deflate McCain’s media-induced momentum.

Open Primary - Winner Take All that has 30 delegates available after the 50% reduction assessed by the National GOP.

Is MI an open primary?

[Ol' Sparky]

As much as I hate McCain, at least he does have an 82.3% lifetime rating from the American Conservative Union. McCain's problem is that one never knows when he will betray the base.

But, Willard has the same problem. He is more of a liar and flip-flopper than McCain, had almost an exclusive liberal record in Massachusetts, has a Mormon problem with many voter and consistently shows up as, by far, the weakest Republican in a head-to-head match up with the prospective Democratic nominee.

It's Romney will lead to the greatest landslide for a Democrat since FDR.

[Ol' Sparky]

Willard isn't even remotely a politician with Reagan's beliefs or charisma. Nor would his opponent be one of the worst Presidents in American history.

You're dreaming if you think this RINO has a chance.

But, if the Republicans must lose, let Romney and those backing him be made fools of. It might be a good lesson for the GOP.

[WOSG]

Alas, it is. MI Dems and indies get to pick our nominee.

[TheLion]

Good stuff. Can’t wait til Tuesday.

Go Mitt!!!!

[TheLion]

Forgot to mention that the last presidential candidate to run for the office, that was born in Michigan, before Romney was Gerald Ford in 1976. He beat Ronald Reagan by 30%! I hope Michigan is kind to it’s latest native son!

[RachelFaith]

I wanna see McCain win just ONE MORE,... then crash and burn hard.

Mitt cannot go on if he comes in 3rd in Michigan behind McCain and Huck.

Lord willing we will be free of ONE of the Pretenders in a few hours.
