Mitt Romney Wins in Michigan, Now the Race is on

 First, we had Iowa Republicans screw up and vote for a liberal RINO in Mike Huckabee, a man who uses religion as a means to spread a liberal socialist agenda through his great compassion. A terrible decision by the voters of Iowa.

 Second, we had my state, New Hampshire, screw up and vote for a liberal, illegal alien amnesty granting, tax raising, GITMO closing, provider of constitutional rights to non American terrorist killing bastards, conservative judge halting, free speech killer, John McCain. The small bright side to the idiocy of New Hampshire’s voters is that this vote slowed down Huckabee’s momentum. If Huckabee somehow won New Hampshire he would have rolled into South Carolina on Saturday as a favorite, and that is beyond astonishing.

 So, McCain takes New Hampshire and moves into Michigan where the polls showed him getting a bounce and in a close race with Mitt Romney. Mitt Romney won the non-evangelical conservative Republican vote in Iowa by a margin of three to won. Mitt also won the Republican vote in New Hampshire, but lost the Independent vote. John McCain doesn’t poll well with Republicans, so his base seems to come from Independents. Independents who are by definition not conservative. Mitt Romney proceeds to handle McCain easily in Michigan and is now back in the mix. At least as far as the media is concerned. The media kept portraying Michigan as being a must win for Romney even though he was the Republican delegate leader. They ignored the fact that Romney has been the leading candidate among conservatives.

 Thank you Michigan for getting this one right. Michigan conservatives voted for Romney over McCain by double digits, just as trends have indicated they would. This was an important primary because if McCain had pulled this out he would have headed to South Carolina with momentum, and that would have been disastrous. Now we have Fred Thompson making his stand in South Carolina, a state where Huckabee appears to be doing well. Huckabee needs to be stopped now, I think this is Huckabee’s last stand, if he loses South Carolina it will end his campaign. I hope.

 I, as a Mitt Romney supporter, hope that this win will give him a bump and help propel him to a victory in South Carolina. From there, it’s on to the white house.

 Thompson could very well take South Carolina, Rudy could pull out a victory in Florida, and then it is on to super Tuesday. We have had two caucuses and two primaries. We have had three winners, with Romney being the only candidate to win twice. No candidate seems to be a clear front-runner.

 The race is on.
