Romney Out?

Looks like Romney is going to do the smart thing and drop out today according to CNN.

Mitt Romney's record of being the pro-choice, fiscally responsible, gay tolerant Governor of Massachussetts that signed a landmark universal healthcare bill didn't resonate with Republican primary voters. And Mitt Romney's presidential campaign where he came out against abortion rights, in favor of making permanent Republican tax cuts, demonizing gay marriage and deriding "socialized medicine" failed to gain traction with the Republican faithful.

Romney's 5 sons can all breathe a sigh of relief, since this means he'll stop spending their inheritance at a clip of $1.6M per delegate. After all, none of them have a military pension to fall back on.

Still, that's a bargain compared to Guliani, who paid a whopping $48.8 Million for ONE delegate. He should have given every voting age person in Iowa a $20. It would have been more cost efficient (by about $5Million).
