Why Mitt Romney Should Stay In
2-06-2008 | my favorite headache

Posted on 02/05/2008 11:21:35 PM PST by My Favorite Headache

What are the next states that Mitt Romney could compete in? Let's break it down.

Romney has won: Massachusetts, Utah, Michigan, Wyoming, Maine, Colorado, Minnesota, Montana, and North Dakota.

Then we have states he finished 2nd and got delegates.

Kansas, Washington, and Louisiana will be next in 3 days...Mitt can win in Washington...but Huckabee will probably take Kansas and La.

Then we have D.C., Maryland, and Virginia on the 12th just 3 more days later. Something tells me those will all go McCain.

16th is Guam..that will go McCain since it is all military.

Wisconsin on the 19th along with Washington Primary. Those would go Romney.

Virgin Islands, Puerto Rico and American Samoa are all after that and lean liberal so those would go McCain.

Then comes March 4th where we have Ohio, Texas,Vermont, and Rhode Island. Romney if he sticks around could take Vermont, Rhode Island and have a shot at Ohio. McCain or Huckabee in Texas.

March 11th is Mississippi that will go Huckabee if he is still around.

April 22nd is Pennsylvania and that could go Mitt or McCain.

May 6th - Indiana and North Carolina - That could go Mitt/Huckabee

May 13th - Nebraska - That could go Romney

May 20th - Kentucky/Oregon - That could go Huckabee/Romney

May 27th - Idaho - Romney

June 3rd - New Mexico/South Dakota - I see that split for McCain/Romney.

I don't see why Mitt should drop out at the moment...he still has a lot of wins in his corner and has room to pick up at least 10 if not a dozen more and make the convention a blood bath that McCain is begging for.

Then again..this is just my opinion.

I think you forgot Nevada.

Question: if McCain gets the majority of the delegates but falls ill before the convention, what happens to his delegates on the first ballot?

he was the republican John Edwards. same look. same talk

Here’s what Russ Feingold said about Edwards:

“The one that is the most problematic is (John) Edwards, who voted for the Patriot Act, campaigns against it. Voted for No Child Left Behind, campaigns against it. Voted for the China trade deal, campaigns against it. Voted for the Iraq war ... He uses my voting record exactly as his platform, even though he had the opposite voting record.

When you had the opportunity to vote a certain way in the Senate and you didn’t, and obviously there are times when you make a mistake, the notion that you sort of vote one way when you’re playing the game in Washington and another way when you’re running for president, there’s some of that going on.”


Edwards was the big dream of liberal activist groups such as dailykos. They also fell for his perfect liberal rhetoric but democrat voters didn’t buy it in the end.

Yup. The two of them ought to get together and run on the “I’m Too Sexy” party ticket. Of course, it’d be a battle to see which one would take the top slot. There’d be quite a number of the crazy fembots and metrosexual creeps on FR that would vote for that ticket in a heartbeat.

let Romney keep the money he still has left and invest it in the private sector where it can do some good.

Ding, ding, ding. We have a winner.

“Someone needs to wake up and smell the liberal bullcrap.”

Seems obvious to me its immanating from your general direction. You seem so enamored with your name-calling that you don’t even recognize it.

You think McCain has enough gas to get to the finish line?

He look tired and consumed! A homunculus.

Since SC, Mitt has been my choice exclusively.

But he has spent million$...

If he says “I’m out”, I won’t blame him.

Let the Republican party back this anti-tax cut, anti-First Amendment, pro-amnesty, anti-ANWR RINO. Let’s see if the Bob Dole/Gerald Ford repeat can snooker enough people into voting for him in the general election.

I actually switched over to CNN last night and this morning where I wasn’t screaming at the TV. I did appreciate Karl Rove’s insight, but the Panel is now pathetic.

And this morning, the Friends made this huge announcement that Rush endorsed Mitt yesterday. They made it sound like Rush came out with trumpets blaring. On Monday, Rush answered a caller about who captured the 3-legs of conservatism and Rush said that right now, that person would be Mitt.

Right..the list of Romney wins stands at:

Massachusetts, Utah, Michigan, Wyoming, Maine, Colorado, Minnesota, Montana, Alaska, Nevada and North Dakota.

11 wins so far and some second place finishes to throw in for delegate purposes. There is plenty of reason to stay in and fight for those states listed above to fight for.

I would have to think that the Romney campaign knows that Huckabee has no money, McCain is not liked in more than half the states remaining...they should give it a shot because it could very well lead to a brokered convention and send the party into turmoil.

Just like Obama and Hillary.

My fear is...that Huckabee will give his delegates to McCain. If he does that...it is over for Mitt.

Mitt has the money to compete, I still don’t see where the Huckster will be getting his.

The tooth fairy.
