The only hope the R's ever had was to UNITE behind a candidate EARLY ON. This thing's got a lot of ugliness left, and the R's are eating their young before our eyes.

I don't think it was a record final voter turnout, either, which was one thing the Dems didn't want to see.

it is early on, mike. it's not as if the nomination fight is going to drag on much longer.

romney has money and organization. he'll be the nominee and get the support of all but the narrowest band of registered republicans in november.

it's a fight for independents from here on. the rest of the primaries are a sideshow before the inevitable occurs. no serious damage is being done. no one will remember much about january in august.
