Romney is starting to pull ahead now.

Yep, he's almost certainly the eventual winner but still not even to halfway. Even if there were no other candidates he still wouldn't have secured the nomination. Such a strange system.

Does not look like it is possible for any of them to have the required number before the Convention, other than Romney. It is time for people to start dropping out.

Agreed. I'd like RP to stay in because I don't think he expects to win but I think he is hoping to influence the party. Gingrich's candidacy is sustained only by his own ego.

And that NV billionaire. Tools like that will keep this thing going.

Oh hell no, I want it to go to convention. At least then there may be a viable candidate to beat this socialist tyrant we have in office now.

I'd like Paul to get it but we all know that ain't gonna happen. There has to be an alternative to the other cons running.
