The author of "The Case for McCain" touted the three leading GOP contenders as including: McCain, Romney, and Guliani. The problem is that nationally in every major poll Huckabee is second behind McCain. In the delegate count Huckabee is second behind Romney. According to the most recent polls, Huckabee is leading in the following super Tuesday states: Missouri, Georgia, Alabama, Arkansas, and Tennessee. Would you mind telling me how many super Tuesday states Guliani is leading in? According to Real Clear Politics: none. If you are going strictly according to Florida then you have evidently forgotten that they are not the only state that has not yet voted. You are also conveniently forgetting that Huckabee and Guliani are neck and neck in Florida. You are also forgettingthat just like Guliani did not place much attention on the previous states, Huckabee is not placing much effort here, in a state that the richest candidates can only compete; due to the expensive media market.
