It’s his home state.
His dad was the governor for many years.
If Mitt Romney can’t win in Michigan… how can he possibly continue his campaign on to South Carolina and Florida? That’s what the media seems to be agreeing on here. Win or die for Mitt Romney… that’s the bottomline.
And he may very well win. Polls have put Romney slightly ahead of McCain… and Democrats (including the DailyKos) are pushing for their voters to cross party-lines and vote Romney in order to create chaos for Republicans.
But it doesn’t matter that much if he wins. It is absurd to celebrate winning your homestate, where your dad was governor, and where you’ve outspent your opposition by a 7-1 margin. A Romney win means that he can continue on until February 5th, but he won’t be the nominee.
A McCain win would likely cement John McCain as the new national front-runner and almost-certain GOP nominee.
Let’s hope for victory, but prepare for the real battle…. South Carolina.
