So Mitt Romney has announced that he is "suspending" his spectacularly-expensive bid for a nomination that the blow-dried businessman candidate thought was his for the taking.
If money was all that mattered in politics, the nomination would have gone to Romney. He put an estimated $50 million of his family's money into the initiative, which will probably end up having cost the candidate and his supporters in excess of $100 million.Thanks to Zell Miller, there is a rule to deal with Joe Lieberman.After the 2008 elections, Senate Democrats should kick Holy Joe out of their caucus.
Lieberman's endorsement of Republican John McCain disqualifies him as a super-delegate to the Democratic National Convention under what is informally known as the Zell Miller rule, according to Democratic State Chairwoman Nancy DiNardo.
- Election Central: A newly released poll from Time magazine.McCain (R) 41%Obama (D) 48%,- Think Progress: Sometimes, it seems like Republicans live in a different reality than the rest of us.
Clinton (D) 46%, McCain (R) 46%
- Fan House: Tiki Barber is full of it.
