And then there were four.....

With all apologies to Ron Paul and his blimp, there are now only four candidates: HRC, Obama, McCain and Mike Huckabee.

Clearly, I want Obama to win, but on the Republican side, I would love it if Huckabee would win. Or at the very least, Huckabee needs to land a few broadsides on John McCain. McCain is too liberal to be a Republican and too Conservative. I don't think this makes him a moderate, I think it makes him a man without a party. So please, Mike, hammer away.

The best thing about Mitt Romney dropping out, is that the two poor Republican candidates in the race. Romney could have minted money, but both McCain and Huckabee are broke. Contrast this with Barack Obama who is bringing in on average ONE MILLION DOLLARS EVERY DAY. HRC has her own war chest. I'm really not intimidated by these broke, marginalized Republicans.

So lets hope for Obama versus Huckabee. Obama will win every state but Arkansas. Huckabee can be their McGovern.
