...Already, of course, the G.O.P. race has given new meaning to the term "up for grabs." After holding primaries and caucuses in six states, no clear front-runner has emerged. Mitt Romney has won three; John McCain has won two; Mike Huckabee has won one. If Rudy Giuliani, who has banked his entire campaign on a late entry in Florida, somehow prevails next week, Round 7 will only add to the confusion...

...concession speech, Huckabee praised McCain for running a clean campaign. "The two of us who finished on top ran with a level of civility," Huckabee said, marking a contrast to the sometimes vicious battle he waged with Mitt Romney in Iowa, and the constant criticism he received from Thompson.
