Now these thoughts are off the top of my head so take them for what they are worth. ;)
Of course I am thrilled with Mitt Romney decisively winning the Michigan primary. The McCain and Huckabee campaigns keep saying he was the "favorite son". While he did grow up in Michigan and people over 50 may have a favorable impression of his father (Wolf Blitzer at one point was referring to Mitt as George) it was more than that. Mitt found his voice on economic issues, which unequivocally is his strength. I definitely think Washington could use an effective CEO. With banks increasingly suffering from the subprime mortgage mess, and the war going better, people naturally turn their minds to their own personal wallets. This could be good for Romney. Whether the Mormon issue will continue to dog him I don't know. It could backfire on his detractors though, we will see. Super Tuesday should be good for junkies like myself.
For what it is worth, Romney won among conservatives last night, Republicans, people who thought the economy was the number one issue and get this.....Evangelicals! Very interesting. Carolyn, what did you think?

I agree with the favorite son comments. They were driving me nuts. The media had him pretty much counted out yesterday before it had ever started and he won not by a little, but by a lot! I am sick of them counting him out. But I can't wait to hear all the religious bigotry comments from Huckabee in the coming day while they are all down south! He has made some comments that really bug me. Well Huckabee himself just really bugs me.
