The Southern Strategy

Well it seems like just about everyone has their eyes focused on the south this weekend. While Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton have been chasing after every last vote heading into tonight's primary, the Republicans have branched out, with Mike Huckabee looking for some Super Tuesday votes in Alabama and Georgia:

"A quick email from the campaign trail in Florida. Two new polls released today show us in 1st in Georgia and tied for 1st in Alabama with Senator McCain. We are working hard to win these delegate rich, Super Tuesday primary states."

For Romney, Florida is a must win state, and the most recent poll I have shows Romney in striking distance of McCain:

		%
	John McCain	31
	Mitt Romney	28
	Rudy Giuliani	15
	Mike Huckabee	10
	Ron Paul	5
	Other	2
	Unsure	9

If Romney pulls it out, we've still got a race on our hands. If McCain holds on, he's basically the nominee. Tonight should be a lot of fun...
