This clearly helps Romney a ton; actually; unlikely to do really well in either state, he’d rather have these later rather than sooner, and he can counteract them with strong performances in New York and California.
Also the longer the race lasts the more money is important, which helps Romney.
After Santorum wins Michigan, I would guess that money will start coming in for him too. And Mitt’s coffers can’t be bottomless, especially when the elitist GOPs start realizing that they are throwing their money at the WRONG guy. LOL.
