Farewell, Mitt Romney

7 02 2008

Mitt Romney “suspended” his presidential campaign this morning, just two days after Super Tuesday. He only won in a few non-competitive states, and delegation wise, got clobbered by John McCain. During his speech he says, “If I forestall a national campaign I would be making it easier for Senators Clinton or Obama to win.”

Mainly he believe that it isn’t good for the Republican party to have debate about who they want to be their nominee. I understand that he says that the bickering between him and McCain would continue and there may be more press on Clinton and Obama, but there already is. Him dropping our really seems to make McCain the Republican nominee. Huckabee wouldn’t be able to catch up with the delegate count. Though I believe he wants to get the VP prize.

Mitt Romney, farewell to the flip-flopper of 2008. Almost as liberal as Ted Kennedy, and yet the conservative candidate. Here to seeing Ann Coulter stumping for the Democrats in the fall.
