Romney drops out

This news will bring conservatives closer to the ledge.

We’ll see how the delegate count shakes out, but both Obama and Clinton did well and will be able to claim victories. Obama routed her in the caucus states and should win more states. Hillary was able to hold on in New Jersey and win California.

It’s absurd that the Clinton campaign is claiming an “upset” win in Massachusetts. Very lame. They always resort to this Orwellian bullshit. Clinton had a huge lead there and Obama never had a lead in the polls.

At this point, Obama has momentum and an advantage with fundraising. Clinton is hanging in there and has some advantages with the Hispanic vote in states like Texas. It’s still a tossup.

Connecticut is seeing a surge in voter registration, particularly among young people, and many independents are switching their registration status, with many more choosing to register as Democrats as opposed to Republicans (13,000 to 4,000)

McCain needs Hillary

February 4, 2008 / Gerardo Orlando

With many prominent conservatives in open revolt over his likely nomination, John McCain needs Hillary Clinton to get the Democratic nomination to win back conservative voters. Howard Fineman just made this point on MSNBC, even mentioning that McCain staffers have acknowledged this to him.

Many of us have been saything this for months. Hillary Clinton is the only person that can unite a Republican Party that is breaking apart.
