[Lincoln Republican]

Romney is looking GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOD!

The Comeback Kid!

[Lincoln Republican]

ROMNEY WINS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

ROMNEY WINS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

ROMNEY WINS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

ROMNEY WINS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This nomination is now a REAL contest!

Spin it how you like.  

ROMNEY WINS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Romney won the REPUBLICAN vote.

Romney did well amongst independents, McCain 36%, Romney 26%.

Romney won conservatives, the Republican base, Romney 42%, McCain 22%.

The Democrats DID NOT, OBVIOUSLY, win this primary form Romney.  Get real.

Romney's back on track.  

His message on the economy and jobs paid big dividends.  

[Lincoln Republican]

This party better not rally around this idiot. He had his gold medal tonight but it's time to shut this guy out of every remaining contest.

Oh, my, my, now aren't we bitter tonight!

[Lincoln Republican]

Romney's victory speech was inspiring, not only for his supporters and Republicans, but for the nation.

[Lincoln Republican]

Romney is looking GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOD!

The Comeback Kid!

I just wanted to let you know that I hate you and Mitt Romney.

Your very bitter remarks do not bother me, however, only a very immature individual tells someone they hate them.

Hate is a very strong word, and unbefitting of any thinking, rational person.

You're right. I try to stay away from "hate" when it comes to this stuff. So instead I use "strongly dislike" and I strongly dislike Mitt Romney.

Thank you Phil.  

I never liked the use of the word "hate", anywhere, anytime.

I know you, and many others, hold very strong opinions about Romney, and although I very obviously do not agree with your views on Romney, I nonetheless respect your right to hold these views.    

[Lincoln Republican]

As the campaign moves onto Super Tuesday, no matter who you support, no matter whether you like it or not, it is going to take big bucks for any candidate to be competitive across all those states.

McCain, Giuliani, and Huckabee better get the bucks rolling in, and I mean big time.

I am simply being realistic.  

[Lincoln Republican]

By the way, all you Democrats Won This For Romney nonsense

CNN, John King, Democrats and independents did not turn out in any numbers.

CNN has the numbers.  CNN has access to the stats.

So there!

[Lincoln Republican]

Interesting stat from Michigan

Evangelicals

Romney            34%

Huckabee         29%

[Lincoln Republican]

This result stems from:

A. Romney's Native Son advantage
B. Lack of significant Independent and Democrat turnout
C. Poor weather conditions affecting turnout

Oh, I understand now, it was the snow that caused the perennial Presidential candidate McCain, who has been running for President non stop since 2000, to lose massively to Romney, combined with the fact that Republicans wanted to vote for Romney and not McCain.  Oh, those darned Republicans.

Talk about spin, spin, spin.  Even Mccain's spokesman didn't come up with these lame excuses for his boss's colossal loss.

Just admit it, Romney thumped McCain, big time.

This clearly does not bode well for your hero in all the states coming up that have closed Republican primaries.

[Lincoln Republican]

First, one must win the nomination.

Without heavy Republican support in closed Reublican primaries, a candidate is not going to win the nomination.

After winning the nomination, your message is then geared to winning the election over a broader range of voters.
