Mark Halperin of "Time" reports that Willard Mitt Romney might announce later today that he will suspend his campaign (read: drop out of the race). Bad news for comedian Rush Limbaugh, succubus Ann Coulter, and the rest of the right-wing talking heads who are pushing for Romney and threatening not to vote for McCain.

Idly speculating...do the right-wing republicans fall in lock-step with McCain, or throw their weight behind Huckabee? Does Huckabee withdraw now, take a pat on the head and wait to see if the RWR accept him as VP nominee, or fight on, hopefully grabbing the RWR banner?

If, mind you, I said, if, Romney quits, Huckabee has nothing to lose by staying in until McCain calls him and offers the VP slot. And then, he waits a few days and accepts.

The more votes Hucakbee gets, the more clout he gets with the party.

This RWR is struggling to with his choices.


Do I want to get shot in the arm or the leg. Hmmm..., tough question.

Of course the LWD must choose getting shot through the heart or the head.


Not a lot of good choices out there for any of us.

It's no rumor - Romney has suspended his campaign.
