Romney is Out

And in a shocking turn of events, Republican candidate Mitt Romney announced the suspension of his campaign for America's next commander-in-chief. This annoucnement comes just two days after Super Tuesday when he stated he would continue with in the race. The former Massachusetts governor said that he was stepping aside to prevent a Democratic candidate from winning. Romney went on to add that he would not let his campaign help aide in the support of a surrender to terror.

Now keeping his campaign from helping Clinton and Obama can not be the only reason for his withdrawal. Romney has dipped into his own wallet and spent more than any other candidate, leading to the conclusion that finanaces played a part his pulling out. His pulling out now could also lead to a future campaign in 2012.

The question arises as to what this will do for the campaigns of John McCain and Mike Huckabee. John McCain the clear leader for the GOP, could gain the endorsement of his former GOP opponent. Also on Super Tuesday, Mike Huckabee declared that the GOP race was indeed a two man race and that he was in it- after having gained much support from the South. Even though he came in third with the number of delegates, Huckabee said earlier in the week that he would no drop out because Romney said he should.

Mitt Romney certainly had his share of quarrels with his Republican opponents, and he also strove to try and prove himself a true conservative. Personally I found him to be...well I began to become not so fond of his character.

So will Romney supporters now sway to backing McCain or will they turn to Huckabee? Or will they choose to support neither? In his closing speech, Romney stated that if needed his supporters would know where to find him. But for now Mitt Romney is out.
