Well, it’s been a crazy night. We’ve witnessed the collapse of the Romney campaign almost everywhere they were playing to win. But Mike Huckabee is now outperforming expectations and might be the second place finisher coming out of tonight.
Romney vows he will hang in there, but how does he justify that with his long list of defeats? Romney absolutely HAS to win California tonight. If he doesnt do it, he’s no longer a relevant force in this race.
Meanwhile, Mike Huckabee is fighting John McCain for the lead in Missouri. Over 80% of the votes have been counted and McCain is only ahead by 1,000 votes. This is a winner-take-all contest for 58 delegates. If Huckabee pulls out a win, it will be huge for his campaign.
If McCain wins Missouri and California tonight, this race is essentially over and John McCain is the Republican nominee.
