Cool that Huckabee did so well vs. McCain. Perhaps Huckabee can knock off McCain in some of those Southern states that now show McCain on top.

Romney will win, but he has to get from 41% to a majority, and with Paul out now, he will gain in the second vote.

I think you maybe a little premature in the call.... But it may well happen.

WEST VIRGINIA State PRESIDENTIAL CONVENTION
Tuesday 5 February 2008
All 18 At-Large Republican National Convention delegates from West Virginia are pledged to the winner of a majority of the delegates attending today’s State Presidential Convention (for which said delegates were chosen from 1 through 14 January last): a maximum of 3 Roll Calls will take place until a majority is secured by a presidential contender, with the third- if necessary- taking place between the top two finshers, short of a majority, on the second Roll Call. (West Virginia will pledge 9 District delegates in a Tuesday 13 May 2008 Presidential Primary).

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.

Rush is reporting this now...says if Mitt wins WV, the Drive-Bys will dismiss it, snore, forget it, etc. If he loses WV, they will demand he is finished, it’s over.

Excellent!

Slick Mitt the Faux Conservative.

Faux (pronounced /ˈfoʊ/, like "foe") is a French word for false or fake. It is often used in English phrases such as faux pearls and faux fur.

When manufacturing faux objects or materials, an attempt is often made to create products which will resemble the imitated items as closely as possible.

Unless Romney is able to hold his own today in other states we’ll be stuck with a mccain/Huckabee ticket. The democrats have to be loving this...

It’s official, from what I’ve heard, that Mike Huckabee has won the West Virginia Caucus. This is terrible news for Mitt Romney, as it illustrates his problem in the rest of the South holding primaries today. Alabama, Tennessee, Georgia, Oklahoma and Missouri (not quite South but still) are all competitive but it looks more to be a McCain vs Huckabee battle there than a Romney battle.

Romney has rolled the dice in California as his last hope. But even if he won there, how would he pull off enough delegates in a state where the districts are apportioned rather than winner-take-all?
