Close race in Florida

UPDATE: McCain pulled out the win.

McCain and Romney are neck and neck in Florida. Live reporting is showing 12% of the votes accounted for and polls are showing 34% McCain followed by 31% Romney. Guiliani is an abysmal 13 points behind Romney it seems. At the start of all this I thought Guiliani’s plan was a solid one. Forgoing the mainstream attacks to focus on Florida seemed like a great way to bounce right into the middle of this very open primary season. Unfortunately, this is not the case. I’m going to call it for Romney since I believe the panhandle was the first reporting which is the most moderate and liberal section of the state. The rest of the candidates are pulling in at 12% Huckabee and 3% Paul, which should hopefully make both of them drop from the race.

The dems are reporting Hillary sweeping the primary. Which I think is good news. Keeping Obama in there will be the best thing we could hope for. All the negative press regarding president Clinton and Obama have showed what kind of political engine the Clinton’s run. Also, I think that once Hillary gets the nom she will have beaten more Obama into such a pulp that she will will like a bully to the public.
