Romney won where he had to win

romneywin.jpgMitt Romney got his must-win victory today in the Michigan primary. And given his personal fortune, the limited funds in his competitors’ campaigns, and the continued lack of a clear leader in the GOP field, he still has a shot for the nomination. But a significant amount of his support in Michigan likely was associated with Romney’s family ties to the state, and it remains to be seen whether he can attract enough supporters in other states to top John McCain and Mike Huckabee, who are leading him in national polls.
