Flash! Wyoming Caucus Was Held

No one mentioned this to me, but apparently Romney wins Wyoming GOP caucuses, CNN projects

(CNN) — Former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney will win the Wyoming Republican caucuses, CNN projects.

With 91 percent of precincts reporting, Romney has won eight of Wyoming’s 12 delegates.

Former Tennessee Sen. Fred Thompson has won two, and California Rep. Duncan Hunter has won one.

I guess “None of the Above” gets the final delegate. Given the stealth nature of this event, it doesn’t look like moving the date forward is an instant recipe for success, unless you are looking for political junk mail to burn in your fireplace.

I can’t believe Hilary’s tears got her the votes she needed to eke out a victory over Osama — I wanted her out of the contest. Mitt did well enough to stay viable in the race. I’m furious that everyone glossed over his victory in the Wyoming caucus.

Now, Mitt heads to Michigan, Nevada, South Carolina and Florida — all of which are prelude to the Feb. 5 “Super Tuesday” battle for 23 primary states. Mitt should be firmly placed on top with wins in MI and NV. Supposedly, Giuliani is going to come out of the woodwork in FL with a blockbuster victory. I predict Huckabee will drop out prior to Super Tuesday.

The primaries seem to be more volatile than usual, especially if Giuliani does have a huge FL win. This reminds me of when Billy boy Clinton came out of obscurity to earn the Liberal nod. Mitt needs Huckabee to drop out and needs Giuliani to fail in FL to have a clean run to the Republican nomination.

In Myrtle Beach, at the GOP debate, Mitt needs to avoid talking about family values and talk about running the country like a successful business and talk about his business accomplishments. America will like that — while I personally love family values, it has become a played term for the American public. He can’t go wrong by saying that he will lower taxes.
