Victory: Much Needed, and Hollow

Well Romney finally managed to win a state in Michigan, McCain was second and Huckabee third. I think we can count Guiliani out as he's yet to actually do anything in either of the caucases/primaries so far. Though he'll probably have a decent showing.

The victory however is huge for Romney, who needed desperately to win one of these pre Super Tuesday elections. Though he might not win all the states, this victory proved he can win some big states. Plus he'll probably be 2nd in most states if he doesn't win. Since the other candidates aren't consistent, so far, as long as he's consistent percentage wise he's the front runner for the GOP.

On the democrats side Clinton won a meaningless and hollow victory. Due to democratic primary rules Michigan is not one of the elite states that is allowed to have a primary prior to February. When it was announced that Michigan was going to have their primary early the Democratic Party told them move it, or lose your delegates. They didn't move so the main front runners took their names off the ballot. All the front runners that is except Hilary.
