Romney Suspends Campaign

If Huckabee left the presidential race, I predicted that Huckabee voters would be more likely to give their votes to Romney than McCain. However, Romney's announcement that he's putting his campaign on hold throws a monkey wrench in the works.

Many, many conservatives don't like McCain. McCain appeals strongly to independents, undecideds and even liberals. The press likes him.

I think this is one of his problems.

When liberals and the press have nice things to say about you and your record, conservatives take a few steps back and prepare to run in the other direction.

Huckabee said that he would vote for McCain should it come to that. This may sway some Huckabee supporters to support McCain down the road should he win the nomination.

Personally, Hillary and Barack are what we're working against. I disagree with those Republicans who are saying they will campaign for Hillary or Obama if McCain wins the nomination. McCain may not be our ideal but another Hillary or Barack Obama he is not.
