He's right. There's the McCain-Huckabee tag team versus Romney.

Possible outcome of a 2008 election with a 

third party run
Possible outcome of a 2008 election with a third party run against the McCain-Huckabee-Soros-Clinton-Obama Cabal.

There are a lot of angry conservatives tonight who were denied their third choice.

For all Romney's faults, he's shown himself to be a man of class and decency who doesn't delight in pi**ing on the base. He's also shown he can organize, raise money and compete.

A third party candidacy could result in a deadlocked election where McCain-Huckabee would have to make meaningful concessions to win. At the very least, it would give conservatives someone to show up and vote for at the top of the ticket to save conservatives down ticket.

Intensity of blue(R)/red(D)/green(3) shades indicate probable percent of vote.

It is a two-man race and way past time for Willard to quit.

A vote for Huckabee is a vote for Huckabee.

Romney should not have been trying to claim a two-man race when he is the one coming in third.

Actually it was always a 3 man race. John McCain, Mike Huckabee and Ron Paul.

The best chance of defeating McCain would be for Romney and the Huck to work together. I know the Huck won’t quit, but if Romney were to quit and endorse the Huck, McCain would be toast.

A vote for Huckabee is a vote for Huckabee.
I guess you missed the West Virginia Caucus? Romney won the first round with 47% oif the vote. Ron Paul is excluded with 5% or less. Then there is no clear winner. McCain's people defect to Huckabee in a bargain and the Huckster "wins".

Am I missing something?
I just looked at the delegate count and MH only has half what MR has - so why is it a two man race with him and JM?
