Let's hear it for democracy

What a strange primary season this has been! Romney won in Michigan in a must-win election, followed by McCain and Huckabee. That makes three different winners in four primaries/caucuses for the GOP, and the situation is as clear as mud.

Actually, it's a little better than that. Right now, Romney has the momentum and the delegate lead. I have little faith he'll be able to maintain that momentum through the south, but if he can continue finishing in the top 2, he just might win the nomination. Of the GOP candidates, he's the only one who has placed in the top 2 in every state so far. It's also worth noting that only Romney and McCain picked up delegates in Michigan.
