...Romney's people like to remind voters that he was a businessman and marketer. McCain's staff point to the Senator's history of diving into political problems without regard to party orthodoxy. One of those resumes is that of someone good at making sales, which is different than making compromises. For what it's worth, Romney has probably been more successful in his line of work. But with his newfound willingness to highlight this distinction, McCain is making a not entirely calculated bet that when it comes to electing a President, Americans would rather embrace a hard-nosed dealmaker...
...hire anyone who was in this country illegally, and we made sure we didn't. And you might go back to my opponent's camp and [tell them] we've moved. We now live in a condominium, OK? Duh." - that was incorrectly attributed to Mitt Romney. The statement has been omitted from the story...
...Here's what we've learned so far: In both parties, there's a top two-Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama for the Democrats, Rudy Giuliani and John McCain for the Republicans. There's a third-place candidate on the edge of the first tier-John Edwards and Mitt Romney. There's a big jump down to the next tier of declared candidates, none of whom seem to have much of a chance. And there is a possible late entry (Al Gore) or two (Fred Thompson and Newt Gingrich), any of whom would join the first tier...
...McCain lost about a third of his support as Giuliani entered the race and took a commanding lead in the polls, approaching 40% a couple of months ago. Now he's fallen back. Today Giuliani is in the lead at about 27%, with McCain at about 21%, followed by Romney and the two not-yet-candidates, Thompson and Gingrich, at about...
...features real differences among the candidates on important and salient issues. Giuliani is pro-choice-and apparently pro-Roe v. Wade-in a pro-life, anti-Roe party. McCain is for something like amnesty for illegal immigrants in a party that is not. There's lots of room for Romney to move up, which he is now doing (he leads in a new Iowa poll), and for Thompson to get in (which he intends to do next month). Romney or Thompson will then battle to become the conservative alternative. It's quite possible that the winner of that battle will...
