Even though Romney had not won a single primary he led the pack in the actual delegate count and Michigan added to that. Do you think this race will go to the convention???

I wouldn’t place too much stock in Romney’s win in Michigan.  He had to win there, his father was Governor there, and he spent a lot of time and money there.  But it won’t look good for him when he finishes third in South Carolina.  I still think McCain gets the nomination.

He led in delegates without winning a primary and now Michigan just adds to it.

If all the rest keep splitting the primaries this one could go to the convention.

It sure looks that way...it is definitely going to wait until after Super Tuesday to see how anything shakes out.

That’s not quite true, this is Romney’s second victory. Of course the Democrats didn’t have one Primary while the Republicans did, and since it was a Primary without Democrats, and the major media’s world revolves around Democrats, they pretty much failed to report much on the Wyoming Republican Primary which was won by Mitt Romney.

I just happen to know that because I’m keeping up with the delegate numbers for Louisiana Conservative Dot Com

Now some of that blame goes to the Republican Candidates who did not pay alot of attention to their own primary in Wyoming. The Media will be where the candidates are ,and if the candidates skip a state the media will skip it also.

Don’t forget Wyoming. It’s been overlooked in the hoopla surrounding Thursday’s Iowa caucuses and next week’s New Hampshire primary, but Wyoming Republicans will caucus Saturday and choose delegates to the national convention in September.

Candidates have paid little attention to the state, though.

Mitt Romney, Fred Thompson, Duncan Hunter and Ron Paul have passed through since September. Mike Huckabee, Rudy Giuliani and John McCain have not.

How many delegates there?

I believe it was 12 delegates.
