Maine Caucus Results
February 10th, 2008
This is interesting…
Mitt Romney 52.0%
John McCain 21.1%
Ron Paul 18.7%
Mike Huckabee 5.9%
Mitt Romney dropped out of the race last week so that the Republicans could unite behind McCain, the apparent nominee, and be in a better position to defeat the terrorists. … uh, I mean Democrats.
But now that the Republicans of Maine have decided that they would like to elect a racist, homophobic, free-market, war mongering, income-tax hating, millionaire businessman for president, perhaps Mitt will have to jump back in.
Yeah the GOP are really confused aren’t they? And how weird was Romney’s speech (for which he inexplicably got kudos in the mainstream press) withdrawing from the race, in which he seemed to be equating the election of a Democrat to surrendering to terrorism? Now that I come to think of it that sounds like a familiar refrain from the Rove/Bush book of politics! Let’s hope McCain rises above it.
