Well, news that Mitt Romney dropped out of the white house race wasn’t surprising. He did piss poor terrible considering how much money he had. But, stepping down now and supporting John McCain (the republican front runner) was a commendable move. Rudy Giuliani had done the same, and I expect Mike Huckabee to also, since he has no real shot.
I believe that Ron Paul should stay in the race whether as a Republican, or a 3rd party (Libertarian), because now that there are fewer candidates, the “message” will continue to be broadcast, but even louder and clearer, should he stay in the Republican race.
If the Republicans are down to one candidate already, then this is certainly good news, because I’m not so sure that an Obama supporter would vote for Hillary, and vice versa. The democratic party is fairly divided as far as support goes, and Hillary could quite possibly be receiving the support of conservative, but independent women, just because she is female. Now if this were down to just Obama and McCain, would they vote for Obama? I think not…
