“The McCain win is pretty remarkable considering he was out spent 9 to 1 and was so broke he was carrying his own luggage.”

BS. There is nothing remarkable in a win when you you got the entire pro-amnesty RINO FL establishment behind you, Crist, Menendez. It was enough to give McCain huge majorities from the proabort, pro-amnesty and non-conservative voters. With Huckabee pulling enough conservative voters away from Romney, McCain won.

Here’s what they did, just heard on CNN:
Taped phone calls IN SPANISH by Sen Mel Martinez.
Robocalls about Mitt Romney accusing him of supporting taxpayer funded abortions and other smears.

McCain was spending a ton of money and has plenty of K street lobbyists giving him what he needs for Feb 5.

It’s a two way race - Romney vs McCain, and the better of the candidates is Romney, especially for conservatives.

I completely agree -- which is why I resubmitted your entire post. And, with the GOP (and the Democrat/MSM, for that matter) establishment being pro-McCain, it's going to be a long slog.
