McCain and Romney neck and neck in Florida (Rudy running third tied with Huck)
Less than a week before Tuesdays Florida GOP presidential primary, a new poll shows Sen. John McCain and Former Gov. Mitt Romney in a statisical tie, with Rudy Giuliani a ditant third in the state. The poll of 800 likely voters conducted for the St. Petersburg Times, Miamai Herald and Bay News 9 shows:

McCain: 25%
Romney: 23%
Giuliani: 15%
Hucklebee: 15%

(the same poll had Rudy winning by 17-points in November!)

According to the article the Dem primary is not being contested, "Democrats are not campaigning in Florida, due to the national party's decision to penalize Florida Democrats for moving up the date of the primary." So like Michigan no delegates will be awarded on Dem side, but on GOP side it's winner take all.

Go Mittens! Beat McCain!! Go Huck!! make Rudy come in Fourth!! hahaha.

3. I hope the corporatists will really force Mitt onto the repiglicans. Sorry McCain, you are
more of a human being to me than Mitt but dems need Mitt to beat you.

4. My original prediction for GOP was Mitt. I may still be proven right.
If he pulls it off, it will affect Super Tuesday.

9. Oh Business man Mitt. The only thing he ever did in business was lay off people..
He's a fucking joke, and he says he'll bring back jobs to Michigan..
