New InsiderAdvantage poll just released has Huckabee over McCain by 9 in Alabama and tied with McCain in GA.

If it goes to a third vote, it will be between Romney and Hucklebee only, and Romney will win.

My sister lives in West Virginia...is a doctor up there with her husband...she said a move for Romney has been going on since Fred dropped out. I am not shocked about this. Fred voters in WVA went to Mitt.

If Romney doesn’t win it on the second vote, he will on the third.


But will get only 9 delegates as I read the process. The remaining 9 go to a primary at a later date, correct?

Most likely. I was saying that Romney would take W. Virginia yesterday and got poo pooed the McCainiacs. Maine gave us the indication.

And BTW, I believe most states not announced or polled by the polling agencies, media, will go to Romney.

Not by the MSM.

But I thought he’d win. And frankly one of those he needs to win. His path to 1191 delegates is tougher than McCain’s because McCain owns most of the winner take all states (thanks to Rudy), so every state is important.

It’s a caucus state, they vote at the WV convention.

I read a WV newspaper (online) article that there is movement afoot for the McCain folks to move to Huckabee to deny Romney the win. Hope it isn’t true.

You can expect most states that did not get polled or not advertised in the media will go to Romney.

Then McCain’s camp should start to show signs of panic.

Couldn’t happen to a nicer bunch.

No, that’s incorrect. The winner today gets 18 delegates. There will be another nine awarded later.

>It would be hilarious if McCain’s stalking horse Huckabee ends up being McCain’s undoing.

How on earth could Huck hurt McCain?
