News after a big YESTERDAY


Check these out to provide you with the current state of the race.

#1: New RedState poll: Who would you vote for now that Fred's gone (Jeff Fuller at Iowans for Romney)

Vote for Mitt. Fred's poor showing may lead him to drop out. Let's hope he endorses Mitt.


#2: CONSERVATIVE CONSOLIDATION (Charles Mitchell at Evangelicals for Mitt)

Charles lists nine thoughts following yesterday's elections and finishes with this paragraph:

After Iowa, I was feeling some pain. After New Hampshire, the best I could hope for was a "marathon" race. Today, after Iowa, Wyoming, New Hampshire, Michigan, Nevada, and South Carolina, I'm telling you -- it's a good time to be a Romney supporter. I'm looking forward to seeing our ranks grow over the coming weeks.

I advise you check EFM regularly for their insights. They must be given at least some (if not a lot) of the credit for Mitt's ability to win (even head-to-head vs. Huckabee) the evangelical vote.


#3: McCain Better Hope this is NEVER shown out of context (gShriber at Elect Romney in 2008)

This is a YouTube displaying McCain's poor taste.


In 2000, running against George W. Bush and the entire Carroll Campbell machine in South Carolina, John McCain got 42% of the vote, and 240,000 votes out of 573,000 or so cast.

Tonight, he got 33% of the vote in a field where his top challengers—Romney and Giuliani—aren’t even running, and 135,000 actual votes. If just the same people who voted for McCain in 2000 had voted for him today, he would have won 50+% of the South Carolina vote. That would have been truly impressive.

Instead, John McCain LOST the support of 100,000 people—and he’s the winner?
